I'm never at my worst because even at my lowest, its a learning experience. It's something that I'll bounce ideas off. I can take negatives and flip them to positives at all times.
I don't like walking around with people thinking I'm doing uncool s--, because there's nothing I'm doing that's uncool. It's all innovative. You just might not understand it yet. But it's cool. Family is super cool. Going home to one girl every night is super cool. Just going home and getting on the floor and playing with your child is super cool. Not wearing a red leather jacket, and just looking like a dad and s--, is like super cool. Having someone that I can call Mom again. That s-- is super cool.
I don’t like facts, because facts get in the way of my feelings.
I’m not comfortable with comfort. I’m only comfortable when I’m in a place where I’m constantly learning and growing.
No flip flops for black dudes. I don’t care where you at. Wear some hot ass Jordans on the beach.
I'm on the pursuit of awesomeness, excellence is the bare minimum.
You're not perfect, but you're not your mistakes.
My wife has dated broke black dudes.

Society has put up so many boundaries, so many limitations on what’s right and wrong that it’s almost impossible to get a pure thought out. It’s like a little kid, a little boy, looking at colors, and no one told him what colors are good, before somebody tells you you shouldn’t like pink because that’s for girls, or you’d instantly become a gay two-year-old. Why would anyone pick blue over pink? Pink is obviously a better color. Everyone’s born confident, and everything’s taken away from you
This is my life homie, you decide yours
Being fresh is more important than having money.
