There are many successful people in the world who have had not the advantage of formal education. Some famous high school dropouts are:

Albert Einstein (physicist); John D Rockefeller (oil magnate); John Glenn (astronaut); Steve Jobs (Apple co-founder); Henry Ford (entrepreneur and industrialist).

The qualities they all had in common were consistency, focus, curiosity, persistence, continued self-education, action-taking, calculated risk-taking - qualities we can all choose to focus on and become good at.  There has never been a better time to seek, learn and upskill ourselves.  'While formal schooling is an important advantage, it is not a guarantee of success, nor is its absence a fatal handicap.' ~ Ray Kroc.
