On a tangential note...how come all the Ivy league business schools invite world famous people who haven't ever studied at the aforementioned schools,who haven't even finished college (well most of them) to deliver the key note address to their students on importance of dreaming,achieving goals...basically being successful and also loving what they do? I mean students dream about getting into these Ivy leagues and after slogging their gluteus maximus off for their graduation,end up being told on THEIR day that they were better off dreaming elsewhere.....
Harvard even has a case study in their curriculum on........"What they dont teach you at Harvard business school" byMark McCormack.
Go on folks...dream...and if you can make gallons of green-backs through it...tell me your secret:)
