Life happens to all of us. It's not what happens to us, but how we respond to what happens to us that really decides if we're going to be victims or if we're going to get and have everything we've ever dreamed of.
Eric ThomasI started as a GED instructor, I created my own GED program, and I realized that a lot of young people that donโt do well academically. Itโs not that they donโt have the competency to do it or the skill set to do it; itโs just that they werenโt motivated to learn. They werenโt interested in school, so I started just talking to students and just really going in on them like, โYo, this is life or death.โ
Eric ThomasI've never wanted to be a doctor, I've never wanted to be an engineer, I've never had that goal, but when you're around people who are successful, you kind of feel some type of way like, I don't want to be a doctor or lawyer but I do want to be successful.
