Prove me wrong!?

Strolling and reading WSO you easily come to the realisation that many of you are looking for hacks and tricks to break into their "dream" job/ company. It seems that everyone forgets just to rock in their current role and position. My experience convinced me that when you purely focus on yourself, on your tasks and on the problems which you have to solve, you really grow, you really achieve to make good accomplishments and great deals. Those achievements will make you very valuable and will easily guide you to your actual path. Dont try to hard to fit in. Fck GPA, fck school, fck the past. This doesn't only apply to IB of course, PE HF RE CO whatever. Am i an idiot? Do you have different experiences?Please LMK what you think.
