And I remember the feeling, even telling the story, I just remember the gut feeling and being out and hoping and trying to control the conversation. So nobody asked me one simple question. And that question is this, where do you live? Because I was so embarrassed. I was a grown ass man living at my parents' house. And let me tell you, my why was to not be living at my parents' house.

So when girls asked me where I live, I could be like my place. That was my why. And like, look, and it was powerful. Like it moved the hell out of me. I share that because I think what happens is is people study people who are already there and don't realize how much that person has changed. So sometimes they take things out of context, right?

Like, so for example, most people outside looking in, they see someone really successful. And they hear a why and be like, well, I want to change the world and I want to make a difference. Look, in the beginning, fuck all that. I didn't care. Like, I had to build my own foundation. I wasn't worried about that. It doesn't mean I was a bad person. I was just very selfish.

I was like, look, I don't want to be embarrassed. I don't want to live in my parents' house. Then it was like, it was immature. I was in my low 20s, right? Then it was like, at the club, I want to buy a bottle. I want to get the table. I want to pull up in the Yari. You know what I mean?

I remember me and my boy Brandon were watching these videos of Soldier Boy and Bow Wow go to McDonald's and order McDonald's in their Lambos. And I thought it was the coolest thing ever. That was legit my why is Bow Wow and Soldier Boy buying McDonald's. That was it, right? And so that was my why that got me out of that. And then, you know, once I had my own place,

Um, it was like, uh, I just want to travel and like do cool shit with my friends. So as I started doing employees, I was just like, you know, it was just like, I'll go to Arizona. So I needed more money for that. And then I was living in Portland, San Diego. It was just, it always changed. So now, now this chapter in my life, my now why is a one word duty.

I am wildly aware of how fortunate and lucky I am. Now don't people don't get this twisted. I am not by any means downplaying my skills, my worth ethic, or what I'm capable of. But make no mistake about it. I am grossly aware of how lucky I am. My parents, right? Like I could have easily had a different parent and my parents could have been addicted to drugs.

Like, you know, that's how close it was in our family, right? I could have easily... Luckily, my dad had a lot of success in automotive sales. And so he was able to take us out of bad areas of San Diego, Southeast San Diego, and put us in a nice area. That had nothing to do with me. I'm lucky.
