2027 x 2875 | Every time you get a diploma, your merits are recognized by the community, the school or your company. Diplomas are there to tell you that you are good at what you do, you’ve accomplished something or you are on your way to do great things. They are much more than paper.But are they? Diplomas don’t pay the rent. Diplomas don’t account for transportation or food. Diplomas never get you the job you're supposed to get. Diplomas are just pieces of paper that are somehow supposed to make you feel better after you’ve put in all of your time, effort, struggles and emotions into a college degree.
They are supposed to give you wealth, recognition and a great life. But do they? Of course not. Your employer will never ask to see a piece of paper from you. They’ll ask to see if you have the skills for their enterprise. If you do, regardless if you have a diploma or not, they’ll give you a job. The same goes for freelancing. If you have the skills, the client will hire you and then continue to work with you until the end of times. If not, he will stop after the first job and call it a day, even if you have 7 diplomas from 7 different high-profile colleges.
