I'm the other Henry Rollins. Same time frame. Same situation. No lucky break. I'm in my late fifties now. Still grinding it out at jobs that most guys quit in their late twenties, early thirties. It's not all doom and gloom. I have a wonderful wife, a couple of great kids, and a nice little house in the burbs. I could do one of two things at this point in my life... sit around thinking about what might have been, or concentrate on making a better future for myself and those I love. That's why I'm here watching this video. Guys like Henry and their stories are what keep me going. Knowing that they made it out gives me hope... makes me smile.

I loved when he admitted luck is involved in all this. Most people forget that luck is behind ALL succes stories. For me admitting the bit of luck in your success is a form of gratitude and humbleness. Even the simple fact that you are alive and able to work hard for your dreams is a piece of luck

"I dont have talent, I have tenacity, I have discipline, I have focus and I know where I come from and what I can go back to" - oh my god, what a statement, I hope that some young person sees this and takes in what that means, no BS just pure honesty, Henry Rollins was the first man I saw as a teenager that made me think, I want to he like this guy, what a force!

"Humiliation and young people have to go together"
I think that's something many in our generation are missing. We're so focused on the image the others have of us, on what others think, on how our embarrassment will be forever documented and stored somewhere on the internet.
It's a pity, if you're not willing to risk humiliation you'll miss some great opportunities. And you are young, you've got nothing to lose, even if you think that nothing you have is a lot. It isn't, pride heals, don't be a prideful useless mess.
