Inspiration
"There are people and ideas that I have, that inspire me everyday to bust my ass. I bust my ass. We could put up anybody on the work and I’ll go hour for hour, I don’t care about that, I don’t care anything about that, about hours or being tired and not getting sleep. Because you can’t say you want something and complain about what it takes to get it! That does not even calculate in my brain. That’s a very important thing that people need to read. I don’t know how you could ever say you want something but then don’t have a way of getting what you want, but keep being fixated on something but don’t have a way, don’t have an idea and don’t want to put in the time to figure that out. Do yourself an easy favor; don’t say you want that thing. It’ll make you sleep better at night."
DOING WHAT YOU DON’T WANT TO BUT HAVE TO FOR SUCCESS
"I would say that I was willing to sacrifice my time in order to be successful. I remember Jimmy [Iovine] told me one time when I used to complain about my hours in my twenties doing two jobs and he said, “Do you think Steve Jobs or Bill Gates had great times in their twenties? The guys that you want to be like, the guys that you aspire to be…that those guys was having a great time like their peers in their twenties? You gotta do what you gotta do man.” It just felt right, it felt like the right answer, ya know? I have a lot of aspirations in life, a lot of it is financial, I am not afraid to say that. A lot of it is personal as well. Speaking from the financial aspect of it, it takes a lot of heavy lifting to put them planes, the boats, them cribs on the board. And I’m willing to do all that for that, ‘cus I like that, like that. By the way, I have no control over it. You gotta listen to Jay’s song on the Black Album called “Allure”. I wasn’t a street guy; I never attempted to sell anything, contraband. However, I could understand the allure of the trappings of everything else that comes from financial success. You strap up ya boots and say, “I’m willing to go through all that to get that.” That’s all; it’s as simple as that."Article:King Magazine
