Defining Moments

How I responded to discouragement

  • THE NOISE

    Messages from Society in general:

    You will never make it. You will be in jail or dead by the time you are 21.

    Make it your goal to prove them wrong. Stay positive at all times and try to be the best in everything you do. No one remembers who came in second, always try to be first.
