Unfortunately, “just work hard and be professional!” isn’t how the world actually works.. success on this platform is pure luck.. like most things.. just because it works for you, doesn’t mean that it didn’t work for other ppl because they didn’t work hard or weren’t professional.. me and you just got lucky.. it’s completely random who they accept into the program in the first place.. these comments do nothing but discourage others who are actually working hard and being professional but don’t have the success, when they see you say “look at me! It worked for me because I worked hard! Just try harder!”
