What If Everything You've Been Told About Success Is Wrong?
Meet Jennie McCormick, a high school dropout who discovered planets from her backyard in New Zealand. Or Alan Rouleau, who went from bartending in a small town to tailoring wardrobes for Fortune 500 CEOs. These aren't fairy tales-they're real stories of people who succeeded by ignoring conventional wisdom. While society insists there's one right path to success, these "dark horses" prove otherwise. They didn't climb corporate ladders or attend elite universities. Instead, they followed their own winding roads and found both excellence and fulfillment. Their secret? They stopped trying to be like everyone else, only better. This isn't about rebellion or luck-it's about a fundamental shift in how we understand human potential. The dark horse approach challenges everything we've been taught: that success requires knowing your destination, following best practices, and conforming to institutional expectations. What if the real path to extraordinary achievement starts with embracing what makes you different?
