The Bobby Bones Show

Just like if you've read Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell. He would write like Bill Gates. He was born where there was a computer. He lived where there was a computer or he wouldn't have been able to be Bill Gates. Like in his town, it was like one of the only computers for hundreds of miles. Had that one computer not been where he was, he would not have been able to be the Bill Gates that we know.

he wrote Outliers and Blink and David and Goliath and he's...

Last year I reread Outliers.

Presumed Innocent at number one, that's accurate.

At some point I stopped feeling shame around any part of my existence. There was a point where I thought, who's benefiting from my feeling of shame? If there's a general sense of like, oh goodness, she's doing what she wants, who benefits from you feeling bad about that? Because usually not anyone whose opinion you're interested in, I would argue.

It's all about seeking pleasure in middle age.

I felt it was more important that I please myself and that I be happy within myself and that I'd be mostly be comfortable in my own skin as I say, no matter how far I've stretched it.

It's more important what you think of you than what somebody else thinks of you.

My first time I played the Grand Ole Opry, it's all a blur. When I was doing comedy at the Grand Ole Opry, it's all a blur, and I don't remember it that well.

I remember even the very first time that I sang on the radio when I was 10 years old, and that's when I got addicted to that feeling of that audience.

I chose to be myself even still. Some things would embarrass me, some things hurt my feelings but not enough to stop me.

It wasn't but I chose to be myself even still. Some things would embarrass me, some things hurt my feelings but not enough to stop me.

I always just wore things that I was comfortable with. I didn't have the money to be fashionable. You know back in the in the days and but I just wore what I was comfortable with what I thought fit my personality and it was a country girl's idea of glam.
