    I don’t know how people can be that way. Magic is right. You got to bow down to greatness lol I mean that’s so natural, to honour talent. Skill. Smarts, ability. Even looks lol Just you have to admire people who got things, they have something. To be great, you have first learn how to honour greatness in others. That’s the truth.
    Like I watched this, and it never even occurred to me. But it’s true, a lot of people get like jealous of great people. Or people with talent, or smarts, or anything. I was never that way, I see any great anything, I’m like wow look at that guy lol He’s great. Even a real good looking or muscular guy, I go wow look at that guy lol Even chicks. I see a hot chick I’m like wow check her out, she’s great. Just it seems so natural to do that.
    Never was driven by jealousy, or envy, or avarice. I don’t understand why people are that way. You got to honour greatness. Then go for greatness yourself. But got to honour it first, don’t be jealous. Honour it, then strive to get to that level yourself.
