There is no excuse for not trying. Excuses are tools of the incompetent, used to build bridges to nowhere and monuments of nothingness. Where you are now does not have to dictate where you will end up. No one's written your destiny for you. You write your own destiny.

You make your own future. No one's born good at all things. Through hard work, you can become good at things. You're not a varsity athlete. You don't hit every note the first time you try a new sport. You must practise before singing a song for the first time. Nobody will give you anything you have not earned.

Nobody cares how tough your upbringing was. Nobody cares if you have been subjected to discrimination. You have a dream, you came here, and the process is not supposed to be comfortable, so if it hurts, welcome to the big leagues. If you feel like you're under heat If you feel like you're being pressured, praise God.

I would do 12 years of pressure, but when God looks like he's pulling you back, eventually he's going to let you go, and the farther he pulls you back, the sooner he releases you. I believe that greatness is something that is bestowed upon us by God through some mysterious power. It's something that truly exists for everyone.

I look at it as a superpower. We all had it very deep inside us. This tiny diamond is surrounded by layers and layers of rock. The hardest rock in the universe. And every good deed you do, a piece of that rock breaks away. Every time you're nice to someone, a piece breaks away.

Every time you achieve something, no matter how small, a piece breaks away every time you face a fear or do something when you could easily file a piece right away. Every time you work on yourself and push yourself further than you have ever been before, a piece breaks away until one day you break through and then there is this big sparkling diamond in there and this thing starts beating like a second heart and you become unstoppable.

Don't be afraid to ask questions. When you need assistance, don't be afraid to ask for it. I do that every day. Asking for help isn't a sign of weakness, it's a sign of strength because it shows you have the courage to admit when you don't know something, which then allows you to learn something new.
