I love everything about this. How he talks, how he got to where he is and his work and wisdom.
A few quotes I liked:
Talent, I believe, is a mostly myth because I hear that a lot. ‘Oh, you’re so talented.’ And it’s not really true.
Your greatest asset isn’t your good looks, it’s not your education, it’s not who you know, it’s none of those things. Your greatest asset you have is your persistence and it’s the one thing that you’re fully in control of.
When you see someone who really excels at something, it’s persistence and staying with it and repetition over a long period of time. That’s what you’re looking at.
I never set out to have an unconventional life. I just kept avoiding things that suffocated me.
