Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I grew up in London as the son of a brick mason. I hated bricklaying, and I was glad that it was my start in life because it gave me a rock-solid work ethic. I learned that hard manual labor gives you an edge. #2 I had a family that told me, No, no, no, that's not us. We're this end of town, those people live at that end of town. So, they hunkered down and did their work, never looking up. #3 I was 19 years old and worked as a construction laborer. I was afraid of boredom, not hard work. I was working more hours than I ever did in construction, but I was so hungry for new experiences that I didn't care. #4 We are constantly taught that we can't do something or another. The average toddler is told no more than four hundred times a day. We are constantly being taught what is right and what is wrong, and we are constantly being told not to do things that might make us look dumb.
