A Reminder on Scholarship Application

Many of you have sent dms to me asking for scholarship info. Let me make some general statements about Scholarship Applications.

1. When you see people post success stories about scholarship and admissions, know that they have been through
many failures. One success is just enough to cancel I million failures. So, it's important that you ask them about their journey, more importantly about their failures.

2. Don't expect that you must be successful in every scholarship applications. O
Personally, my failures in this scholarship journey are more than the successes. Scholarship is not meant for the most intelligent. It is for the resilient, dogged and smart. So, be prepared to fail. That is the simple truth.
3. Many of you are expecting feedback from many scholarship applications. Don't be too anxious, be prepared to get a 'love letter' and be ready to learn and move on. If you relent, there are thousands willing to move on
What's your gain? Will you give up after so much
energy, time and resources?

4. When you fail, please ask people for feedbacks. Let them tell you what you did wrong. Talk to people. This will further ignite your passion. Scholarship is not for the weak.
5. Many don't read links attached to tweets we post. They will now come to dm to ask the same question about what is already answered. There is no short cut to success, you must be ready to read every link attached to tweets.
6. I will be posting information about Swedish Scholarship soon. Will you read all the links I will attach?
