"...and I never would have realized that the way you get ahead in life is hard work."
This caught my attention because, you have to go through the hard work before you get to where you want to be. And by that, it shows us that if we want something we have try our best to achieve it. Everyone, well most people are like lotus flowers. They have to grow through mud and dirt before they begin to bloom; just like any other flower. If you go through hard work before you succeed then you know that you deserve it.
If he didn't try so hard to get where he wanted to be, then would he be where he is at now? Does he think he deserves it?
This man seems really successful, he should be grateful for where he's at and what he has. Does he ever take advantage of his fame or money? Like for example, how when people become rich and they just become all cocky and selfish. Im always curious about that. Does he still have to work hard just like before?
I contemplated on this quote and it made me realize that everyone has to go through that stage in life, especially the famous people. I've seen many others try their best and they have succeeded. This quote reminds me of my mom because she always tries her best at what she does, and I see her now and she's gone so far in life. She never gives up, she always finishes what she started. And that's what motivates me to do the same.
