Growing Up

I was listening to an interview with Charles Barkely today. They were discussing how Charles used to be angry, asking how he changed his attitude. This is what Charles said (paraphrasing):


"When I was younger, I used to be mad at everybody. I was mad at my high school, mad at my family, mad at everyone I thought was holding me back. And I used that to fuel me and to make me sucessful. But I realized I can't just go around being angry with everyone. I can use the past to fuel myself, but I can't be mad all the time, its not healthy.

Basically, I had to grow up."


Amen, Sir Charles, amen.
