Mike Tyson describes how an older Italian mentor built up his ego, which brought him success and fame but cost him his freedom, family, and capacity for love. He warns that ego turns you into an animal state and urges men to let it go.
What advice would you give to men.
Who are so.
Ego driven? What would you say to them on how to, like, let it go?
Listen, I'm gonna tell you something about the ego. From my experience, My, I'm nothing but just a junkyard studded kid, right? But my. I had nothing. Had nothing. This. This old Italian man gave me an ego, right? And it gave me everything I wanted. The ego gave me everything I ever wanted and more. But it took so much more in return.
What did it take?
Took everything.
Wow.
Took everything. Been in prison. Took everything.
Family, love.
Yeah, well, you don't care. You're almost an animal.
Wow.
You know? Oh, I'll never want to go there again.
Wow, man.
Well, you want to live like an animal when you can't, say, give it up. Hey, I don't want to do that no more. I love you.
Wow.
Life prepares you. Life prepares you for everything.
