    Damn, i spent my 17 minutes hearing this. Before you do the same what's related to scholarship is only:
    1. There's no such ordinary and extra ordinary story, it depends.
    2. Storytelling is hard, you need to learn.
    3. Lets own our unique story, never disown it. It can be a matter to story telling
    4. Whether you accepted or not, youre still worthy.

      Wow I'm amazed that you thought you wasted your time. Perhaps you should "waste" another 17 and this time listen. And for everyone who is thinking of just reading this Arsh guy's checklist rather than spending 17 minutes listening to this talk, think again.

    I was expecting a few little tips on how to get a scholarship - why i clicked on this video - but I got a whole therapy session.
    Thank you Donovan for allowing me to understand my worth

    *summary* : own your story, don't try to customise it to what you think society wants to hear.
    accept humble beginnings
    whether you get the scholarship or not, you are still worthy

    It's easier to get a scholarship as a poor working class kid because no one wants to give more money to someone who has plenty

    It's ironic how everyone says this is misleading when it is literally all you need.

    Hello,
    I am Jaden Stone. I am currently a freshman at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga studying Environmental Science. Is there anyway I could have Donovan's email address? I would love to talk with him about his experiences with the UN and the work he has done.

    The title is misleading and as I was listening to the first few lines thinking... This isn't helping!
