Don't have to be a brilliant mind to be a millionaire

One of the most astonishing things for me as an ex communist country inhabitant, was the fall of all intellectual values that I used to worship in the old regime days.

Apparently, in capitalism (as I use to call the democracy) you don't need to be intellectual at all ... Well, you can be intellectual, but this won't bring you necessary the fame or success. As a matter of fact it seems that intellectuality brought famine in the old regime.

At those times, it was a direct and straightforward relation between study and career. The education system was by far more elevated than in capitalist, developed countries, and still the results were poor. Why ? ... Because once finishing your education degrees of whatever level, you were automatically (and guaranteed) employed in the economic system, and there the evaluation system was a disaster.

As an individ, you were not forced to struggle with yourself and the others to discover your real capabilities and competences, the only criteria of ascending in your career being only your intellectual level, certified by the degrees you had.

These days the times are changed. It is not enough to work hard or study hard to get a decent position or achieve a certain goal, but you have to have luck also. It seems to be more like a poker game, than a determined situation. Practically you have to work hard and wait and chase opportunities. But to make things worse, nobody is telling you when opportunities comes. So ... what you gonna do?

I think the answer of that question is to explore your inner capabilities and enhance them. It has to be something you like to do or at least something you would like to do. Anyway, remember you don't have a chance if you're doing something that you really don't like, because the market it's already filled with people who knows their jobs, even if they have a lower IQ than yours ... After all that is why the capitalist system is higher ... because it gives you a chance even if you don't have a brilliant mind.
