He went anyway and came back bitter, convinced he was done with high school. Then his journalism teacher saw something in him he couldn't see, inviting him to be the photographer for the school newspaper. Their small-town Montana crew won the #1 newspaper in America, and Brendon placed 2nd nationally in photography. The lesson: surround yourself with people who believe in your potential, because your life opens up through gates of generosity from those who see greatness in you before you do, not by leaving opportunity to luck or chance.
