If I liked an idea, even slightly, I would throw some money at it. I've had a lot of random things not work out that people don't know about.

Never undervalue the idea of partners. Understanding your strengths and then going out trying to find like-minded people who will be another pillar of your success.

You don't know where life's gonna take you. Sometimes it takes you getting carried out of a club and then into a booth as an apology for it.

I love everything I do and I can still remember the days of cashing my first royalty check for $2. I have such a great life, I'm proud of everything.

For me, I'm a skateboarder.If I'm not skating then I'm going crazy. The big deals, if I'm not skating, it's not worth it.

No one is going to give it to you. Spend everyday getting better and focus on that which you can control, let everything else fall into place. You can't stay focused on what you can get from success, but rather focus on becoming successful!

I had to learn the hard way. There was a blindness, without any education or will or drive. Everything I started in the beginning from skate shops to record labels to a million and one side hustles that I went in without knowing how I was going to do it, a lot of those ventures just went out of business.
