I grew up in foster care. I lived in a car when I was 17. I was educated late in life. At times I’m sort of dumb. I can be naïve. I don’t catch on fast. Most of the time I don’t have a friggin clue about what’s going on. A lot of times, things have to be explained to me.

But I have never, not once, failed to achieve every goal I have set for myself.
Never have I failed in that mission.  

And here’s why; tenacity. Got knocked down a thousand times? Then get up a thousand and one.


Tenacity is the secret to my strength.
