I Could Really Try New Things. That

Where I Grew Up - We Started Out In Oklahoma And Then Moved To Missouri - It Was Considered Hubris To Talk About Yourself. And The Downside Of That Was That Ideas Rarely Got Exchanged, Or True Feelings.

I Had A Very Supportive Family Environment That Gave Me Room To Explore And Discover Things About Myself.

Family Comes First So I Only Have This Specific Window Of Time Available To Me And Because Of That I Actually Get More Done.

The Scouts [in "moneyball"] Could Lend An Authenticity That's Even Beyond What We Had On The Page.

No More Excuses. I Can't Blame Anything On My Parents. I'm Responsible For My Mistakes And My Choices.
