My mentality has always been, If I'm not the best at something, then I might as well be the best at something else. I realized that I wasn't going to be an Olympic volleyball player, but I knew I could model at that level.

I'm lucky to be in a profession where you can keep getting better.
If you want to remain the best, you have to keep on doing what you are good at.
Whatever you are by nature, keep to it; never desert your line of talent. Be what nature intended you for, and you will succeed.
