If you don't have common sense, you’re not gonna make it.

We live in a world where people got college degrees and can't even get a job.

That's sad.

Do you know what will guarantee you work whether as an entrepreneur on your own, or working for somebody else in a great job?

The ability to see the big picture, have common sense and take action. It's so important to be able to give people insight and not just be a robot.

Guess how much money you're gonna make being a robot?

Minimum wage.

I’m not making fun of people who work in that environment, I'm just giving you the way the economy and life works. If you go back to any period of time, that has always been the norm.

If you just take orders, there's not much of a future for you. You need to be someone who makes decisions.

I want to give you some tips that will get you a job without a degree:

Common Sense
First, understand common sense isn't common. A lot of us think, “common sense is common.”

No, common sense is an acquired skill just like if you want to learn Spanish or Mandarin, Chinese. You have to acquire that skill through study, through repetition and listening to other people teach you.

Find a coach, a mentor, or teacher.

I thought I had common sense till I went to work for my first mentor Joel Salatin and he was like, "Look man, you don't know jack about life. You don't understand anything." I thought I did. I had gone through high school, I was a smart student, but in terms of putting together the big picture, I struggled.

Hi, I often tell people that genius is not so much talent as it is attitude… You see, your attitude is the environment you decide to carry with you during the day. It proclaims to the world what you think of yourself and indicates the sort of person you have made up your mind to be. A genius attitude is deciding that you can do well at anything you make up your mind to do. When you do that, you give the project all you’ve got, and in doing so, attract the favorable attention of others. Attitude is one of the most commonly used and yet most misunderstood words in the English language. However, if you understand what attitude really is, you’ll know how to bring the best of you to the surface every day... To your success, Bob Proctor Chairman & Co-Founder Proctor Gallagher Institute
I always wanted to shout my heart out. It's s been a while. I have so many issues having on my mind. My daughter is not listening to me but for a time she listens just a blink of time. I wanted to rest but my 2nd daughter needs me because she's only 8 months old. My husband also doesn't listen to any of what I say, he makes me feels like I'm stupid or that I talk nonsense. I need someone to talk to me, to listen to what I need to say. I'm also human I need love respect and trust and everything else more. I want to rest. I want to clear my mind. I want to be love. I want more of me. I want me. 
Hey Tai here, Sometimes it's hard to find somebody to help. There's a lot of need out there in the world. The way I look at it, in the world with all the suffering, you've got to earn the right to drive a Rolls Royce by making sure you give back. I gave $500 to a homeless man and his dog once and he thanked me by saying  “there is a God.” Now some people would probably say he might use that money for drugs and alcohol, and there's some truth to that, but I don't know. At this point in my life I don't feel like it's my place to judge everything, figure everything out, and try to help. Some people use it the right way, some people abuse it, but for the people that do use it, at least people didn't hold back giving because of the people who do abuse it. You know what I mean? Plus with that guy, I kind of have a soft spot for dogs. He's got his dog, and hopefully he buys some dog food, vet bills. You know I feel like animals are a lot of times helples...
