The speaker argues that hard work beats raw intelligence in the real world. High-IQ people who coasted in school fail professionally, while sustained effort pays off. You don't need to be a genius to make money online, just willing to keep going.
I'm stupid, so I work hard. Let me explain. All the kids who got by without having to work hard, maybe they were super, super high IQ intelligent. That's what they're trying to do now in their careers. They're trying to just skate by like they did in school without working hard. It doesn't work in the real world. In the real world, hard work beats natural IQ, right? I'm kind of dumb. I never understood biology or physics or chemistry. My IQ, I think I just hit a cutoff point, okay? Like, I just don't understand that. I know I'm not as smart as the high IQ, gigabrain PhD engineers. So I have to work harder. Accept that about yourself. It's okay. There's nothing wrong with that. You don't have to be the gigabrain engineer to make money on the internet, right? But don't give up on yourself just because you didn't understand biology.
