Lack of knowledge or Lack of Will?

Why, in the Industrial Age, did most parents want their children to become accountants, attorneys, engineers etc...? Have you noticed that many of the brightest graduates from our universities want to work for college dropouts... dropouts such as Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Michael Dell, and Ted Turner?

"I studied everything, study hard, but never topped & never became Cum Laude, Magna or Summa Cum Laude  BUT  Today, the topnotchers and honors of the best universities are my employees." - Bill gates 

 Life is truly not a battle of skills but a battle of WILLS. 

"The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather in a lack of will."- Vincent T. Lombardi
