I'm really being stimulated by this meticulous work. So I'm like, bro,
let me take this on me, man, and let me
let me see what I can do with it. So
I took it home and from that day for I've
either created a piece of art, I've brainstormed something tooth make,
or designed something on a computer every single day. And

curious and stay curious about yourself. Like I say, when
I my whole life, I was dedicated.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
To sports and football and things of that nature.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Uh So when I stopped playing, I didn't know my idea,
I didn't know who I was.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
I was able to hide behind sports my whole life
because I was better than average.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
So I meet somebody they already.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Know, oh he played football, and they start, you know,
showing me the love and appreciation through that. So when
I stopped playing, now I had to I had to
figure out who I am as a person outside of
that because the people on meeting out they don't know
about what I did on the football football field. So yeah,
I had to get curious about myself. I had to
really dig that, dig deep and figure out who I
am as a person outside of sports.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
So I would like I say, I would.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Say stay curious, and I only say curious. Stay curious,
and put action behind some of that curiosity. You know
what I'm saying, Because we can all get curious about
various different things. But if it doesn't go beyond the curiosity, there's.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
No action behind it, it kind of dies off.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
So stay curious and beyond the curiosity.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Put action behind it. Try it out, Try it out.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
If you're curious about something, you want to know more
about it, Try it out, Give it a try, and
you never know.

What might come from it.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Because answer I found my God given time.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
This is God given.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Honestly, it's not an option at all. You learn something new,
and that's that's kind of where I'm at.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Man, I'm not afraid that.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
You've been helping you, like honestly, me myself, various different youth.
I watch a lot of YouTube and just like I said,
just being curious, bro, I see I see other creators
creating and it sparks a certain level of curiosity and
I dig deep until I find answer and I try
(09:57):
it out.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Yeah. So, like I say, stake curious, man, stay curious.
Put action behind it.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
