Takeaways + Tactics

• Having skills is one half of the equation You also have to know how to play the game.
  

At the start of the show, Temitayo shared on getting his degree in online marketing at Full Sail University and the decision he made to go back to school at 28. We also talked about the misconception people have about taking the self-taught route in marketing. Towards the end of the show, he talked about his podcast: Marketing Disenchanted.

We also spoke about:

• Name discrimination vs. color discrimination

It takes a very wise person to decide to go back to school to get the tools they need to make their dreams come true. For a lot of people, money is a barrier to this life. However, student loans can knock down this barrier and open people up to more opportunities. There’s a decline in entrepreneurship because the costs of the education and the tools are just too daunting. The key is to not play a victim and complain about what’s wrong with the world. It’s about figuring out what you can do to level up and access the opportunities.
