I know you hustle porn lovers like this thing, but it is - to use the technical term - complete bollocks.

Plenty of people work hard their whole lives and have nothing to show for it. Most success comes from luck and privilege (which is a kind of luck). https://twitter.com/visualizevalue/status/1275393193140531200
Able to work for free for two years to build your business? Good for you for having the time and money to do that. But that’s privilege.

Working 12 hours a day? Good for you for physically being able to do that because you don’t have a chronic illness. That’s lucky.
Got that first job via an internship? Good for you for having those kind of connections. But most people don’t.

Born in a country where the kind of job you want is accessible? What luck you have.
And remember that in 2020 Black people are still less likely to get senior jobs or investment in their business. So if you’re talking about how hard you worked to get where you are, remember others may be working just as hard but don’t have your luck. #BlackLivesMatter
