So why do I talk about the benefits of failure? Simply because failure meant a stripping away of the inessential. I stopped pretending to myself that I was anything other than what I was, and began to direct all my energy into finishing the only work that mattered to me.
I'm not going to compare myself to anybody. I'm going to do the best I can do. I'm going to work hard every day to be the best that I can be.
