Title: Reminds me of when I was poor so don't let being poor hold you back
Post by: theking on September 01, 2020, 08:57:14 PM

I couldn't afford to buy newspapers or magazines to do my history and political science homework so I waited until local businesses throw them out in the evening and use it to complete my papers and projects. Sometimes you just have to improvise and think outside the box a little to get things done like the girls in the story below but it still works just the same. Therefore, don't let being poor be an excuse not to succeed or determine your path..instead work through it as best as you can.. O0

It's even harder for those in third world country but again, intrinsic motivation and drive still outweigh excuses and laziness:
