The best degree from the greatest institution in the world means very little in the face of experience. Just because someone can conduct a train, doesn’t mean they can pilot a plane.
My dad is one of the smartest people I have ever met and he doesn’t have a degree of any kind. But he listens. (He is also a natural math genius, but that’s a different story.) Like many successful people, he learns by doing and he has done plenty. Two of the smartest programmers I have ever met do not have college degrees. Yet somehow, the basics escape so many who have the advanced Pedigree.
If you don’t succeed the first time, try and try again. But for heaven’s sake TRY A DIFFERENT APPROACH!

Oh, the glorious goodness of mister box hands himself – the master of obfuscation.
I think Bill Cosby said it best:
A word to the wise ain’t necessary – it’s the stupid ones that need the advice.
And as I say:
Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding… so many people are still stuck at Knowledge.
