adversity was the biggest teacher for me
I feel like adversity was the biggest teacher for me, right? Adversity taught me so much man, every time I lost I just walked out of there and I'm just like okay what did I learn and I started to break down you know how I was learning and it was basically through all my losses like I learned every time I wasted money I learned every time I wasted a relationship I learned every time you know I wasted my time and my energy on something and I'm sitting here and I'm going like when you look at the world everybody shows you how they winning how they succeed but I'm riding how I'm living you'll never talk about what they lost right so you see the finished product and that's why the instant gratification comes because everybody feel like they can walk outside and be you tomorrow that's where the hate come from really because you feel like I can stand beside you and be you tomorrow but you ain't went through what I went through so adversity to me is just like I would rather focus on that than saying I won't right I'd rather sell you all the times I lost because that's what a value was for me so I'd rather sell you that you know what I'm saying than anything else but you gotta believe you know I can give you the adversity but you have to believe I mean that part is so separately you know what I'm saying that ain't got nothing to do with me
