Philosophy

I cannot be outworked, period. I live by the following quote:

"The only thing that I see that is distinctly different about me is that I'm not afraid to die on a treadmill. I will not be outworked, period. You might have more talent than me, you might be smarter than me, you might be sexier than me, you might be all those things you got it on me in nine categories. But if we get on the treadmill together, there are two things: You're getting off first, or I will die. It's that simple, right? You're not going to out-work me. It's such a simple, basic concept.”
