And I think that I just endured so much pain and I was so numb that,

I had made this equation in my head that illiteracy and poverty mean pain.

So affluence and means and education must mean joy.

I was wrong.

But I just felt that the only way we grow in life, the only way we get bigger, the only way we get stronger.

And again, I wasn't doing this intellectually.

This is me looking back.

Is if we push ourselves to do things that we know we can't do.

Not we don't wonder if we can do it, that we know we can't do it.

And we try anyway.

And if we do that a hundred times and a thousand times, and when we fail, we try different techniques because you're going to go backwards a lot.

They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again.

The definition that Einstein talked about failure being trying a thousand times or Edison

trying a thousand times and still doing it again.

What's the difference between that and insanity?

In the case of Einstein, in the case of Edison, they're doing things differently.

Every time they do something, they change it a little bit and then they change it a little bit.

So insanity is doing the same thing over and over again.

Genius is doing something a different way over and over again until you get a different result.

So I was willing to make a step, get punched in the face, slammed on the ground, go back five feet, get up and go another inch and then go back again.
