Take two people
Same gender, race, likes...
Practically mirrored

Both go to the same college under the same field
But different approaches on motivation...
...Leading to a different outcome.
One is a studious person who reads books, studies, reviews, and practices for his exams
The other person goes out more than studies, parties, and partially reviews
Both passed the class
One with a higher GPA then the other

Both graduate and apply to the same position to the same job in the same building
There is only one position open for what these people applied to
The person who studied more is confident that he will get the position because of his work in College...
...Studied, reliable, high grades in general
The one who went and partied more with average grades is more mellow and calm
Not confident but not uncertain...

...The results come back
The person who studied and had high grades DID NOT get the position
Rather the other person did
Neither knew why

So the person with the average grades was hired and had a great job
While the other person could not find work in the field studied in...
...And was forced to work in a low paying job NOT in the field studied
For years...

There's a moral to this story.
Nothing is guaranteed in life
No matter what you have done, the accomplishments you achieved, or the grades you earn
It does not guarantee you stability in the future towards what you want...
...You must adjust...be like water and flow free

Life is a gamble
You never know when you get your chance
