I tell them how what matters is becoming the best you can be at whatever you're doing.

My parents instilled in me that life was going to be very difficult and that I'd have to work for everything.

I've learned that one thing about my life that is certain is trouble.

The only thing that I know is that, growing up, I came across stumbling blocks, and I always said to myself, 'If I ever get into a position to do something about this, I would like to, so that somebody does not deal with what I went through.'

It's been a pattern in my life - when I get in trouble, I try to get out of it, since I was little.

I've dealt with many challenges in my life, with my family.

I go into meetings, and people have this preconceived notion of me that I didn't work hard to get where I am.

My friends told me that it's the hardest thing to separate the personal life from their work.

When I was young, they just gave me the lead. And when I got old, they wouldn't see me at all.
