You need both.
I'm telling you, you got to have phenomenal will.
And I wasn't smart as you, but I passed you up.
Why?
Because I had that dog.
I had that will.
I had that determination.
I don't care that I can't read or write.
Like, I failed English twice in college.
I still got a four-year degree.
Took me 12 years, but that dog, that will.
I said, if God gave me the ability to get up, yup, it might take me five days to do what it take you to do in one day, but I'm gonna do it in five.
It may take me four weeks to read a book that you can read in a week, but I got that dog.
And guess what happens?
If you don't have phenomenal skill, but you got phenomenal will, you can make up for skill.
I went in the dark, y'all.
I went in the dark for 10 years.
I ain't watched no TV.
I ain't listened to no music.
Sacrifice.
