It doesn't matter how smart you are.
Or how talented you are.
Or how many people you know.
Or how good looking you are.
Or how much money you have.
All of these things don't really matter.
And the only thing that really matters is this:
Courage...
Because all of the above things without courage are pretty much worthless.
On the other hand if all you have is courage, then you don't necessarily need any of the above.
Because courage will make up for all of the above things and more.
Courage is the straightest line to getting where you want to be.
Everything else are either perks when you have them or distractions when you don't have them...
