00:00And a lot of people don't know that no matter what their conditions are, or what you're going through, or where you come from, how you talk, how you look, it don't matter.
00:10Success starts with being hungry.
00:12I grew up in the projects, and I never had a bed.
00:17People say, you never had a bed.
00:18I never had a bed until I was 18.
00:20I had lived in an apartment with 16 people, and we had three bedrooms.
00:26But I didn't use that as being angry.
00:30I don't have nothing.
00:31I used that as motivation.
00:33That was my power.
00:34And I said, I'm going to take this and do something with my life.
00:39I'm going to better myself.
00:41I want to better my condition.
00:42I need to break the negative cycles that are going on in my house with my family, everything.
00:49And so it's almost like jumping out of a plane and not knowing.
00:52And so you ever watch those guys that jump out the plane, and when they get down, they fall, and they fall, and they fall, and they fall, and you know, you think it's over, but you land on your feet, and you know that I made it.
01:05Failure is not even a word in my vocabulary.
01:07Because every time I almost hit the ground, I put my hands down or something and get back up, or get on my knees and crawl across that finish line.
01:19I tell people all the time, a race, it is not about coming in first place.
01:23It's about finishing.
01:25It's about keeping your word.
01:27It's about being law.
01:28And just knowing the most important investment that you can make is in yourself.
