The difference? Average people let trauma hold them back. The great turn it into power.

In high school, like, I'd get picked on, you know, and I was on the school on the varsity football team, and I was, like, the smallest guy. And so I was good target practice, which was fun. But I think that did give me, like, a little chip on my shoulder, perhaps, now that I reflect back. But I think, like, look, your drive, like, it's what you create, and you can take that, you know, the trauma, the excitement. And ultimately, like, I love what I do. It's stressful, it's hard, but I eat, drink, sleep, breathe it.

Yeah. And I think we all have these traumatic things. And the most successful people that I know, usually there was something in their childhood that being bullied or being abused or physically or sexually or having a really toxic family environment or things like that, and it usually drives them. You know, think of Oprah, like, the biggest example, right? It's driving them to just never quit and be so resilient that no matter what you go through, you can overcome it and you're going to keep going and grow.
