 Yeah, we on boss talk one on one, one on one. Yeah, we gonna talk. I wanted to know, cause just like you said, the only thing you took out of the old you is the drug game. Yeah. But in everything that you knew back then of how to do things and what you were doing, how much of that do you use in today's society? All of it. All of it. The only part I don't do is- To be successful. I just don't sell cocaine no more. That's it. We books. You know when I first started selling my book, they said, man, you can't sell books like you sold. Yes, you can. Like you sold cocaine. Cause I'll be in front of the supermarket. Oh, really? Let them 12 o'clock at night. I'm sitting in front of the supermarket. Hey man, this is my book. It just came out. You ought to read this book. Great book. And some people will buy it. To me, I feel like it's a drive. It's a drive. When you go out here and hustle whatever that you love, I want to say hustle. If you have a passion for it, cause nobody's gonna go out here and do it like you will because it's yours. And that's how I look at it. Why should they do it for you? Some people will because you paint them. But they're not going to do it like you could do it. Right. Because even when we're running our business, we have a boutique and we've had multiple, we've had up to seven. And one thing I used to hate about it is the fact that whenever I would hire people and teach them exactly to do what I do and leave them in different locations, when customers came in, they're looking for me. No matter what, they're looking for me. No matter how much I train them to be me. So to say, they're coming wherever I am. I am. You know what I mean? And I'm like, you can't be everyone. Well, people don't have the confidence that you have. Sometimes people are afraid, people are afraid to fail. You know, the book was that I was reading. It was talking about the power of fear, the power of love, the power of unknown. And these are powerful fears. Right. You know, these are things that really affect people's lives. Like, I don't want people to know that I tried to not make it, you know. It makes you make the wrong decision sometimes because you're scared to make the wrong decision. And then your family tell you, boy, you can't do that. Right. Everybody in the family. Yeah, you can't do that. How are you gonna do that? I wasn't able to do it. And that's usually what they say. That's exactly what they say. So, you know, you have to build it up in yourself to where you're confident in yourself that no matter what everybody else is saying, that I'm gonna do what I feel and I should be doing. Because I really was a drug dealer, not because I wanted to be a drug dealer. If somebody would have told me a couple of weeks before I started selling cocaine, I was gonna be a cocaine dealer. I would have laughed. So I would have been on the floor rolling over and like, you the dumbest man in the whole world. It's just like if somebody would have told me when I was in jail, I was gonna be a weed dealer. You know, oh, you gonna get out, you're gonna be selling weed. Cause I didn't even know weed was legal in California. Really, you didn't? I'm in jail in Texas. I'm in jail in Texas, Carolina, Texas, that's what. So I don't know what's going on. I'm not getting L.A. newspapers no more. I'm getting, you know, the Texas, Texas paper. You know, Texas, Carolina, you know, this is the stuff. And see, you only know what you're fed. So how long was you in Texas, Carolina? I did five, five, six years in Texas, Carolina. So you ain't, you, when you go like to Houston now, you've never went back down to Tyler and nothing like that happened. Go back to Tyler? You do? I got family in Tyler. I know I, you was young when you left. I thought they might've moved away, but they still there. Oh no. They ain't gonna never, my grandfather had 24 kids. Wow. My mom had 19. So I got, I got family in Houston, Dallas. You have a huge family. Tyler, Fort Worth. And you keep in contact with all of them? No, I don't. You can't do that. But when you was in Texas, can I come visit you? They can call me. I ain't some of them. I got 14,000 numbers in my phone. Wow. You like Mike Jones. I don't really call people. You know, if I call you, it's a rarity. I don't need to call a very, very, very few people that I pick up the phone and call without them initiating the call. Okay. Because I don't want to talk to people. I don't know. If I say that, people gonna think something. They're gonna be mad, they're gonna be mad. If we're not talking about something. Right. I don't want to talk to you. I got you. You know, I don't want to know about the weather. You don't want to shoot the breeze. I ain't got time to shoot the breeze. You know, I shot the breeze for 20 years in the penitentiary. Even in there, though, I don't really like shooting the breeze. You know, I kept... You're too busy reading. Trying to gain knowledge. Oh, he play sports too, according to Bob Johnson. So he messed him up on that. I played that basketball. Yeah, that's what he said. But you didn't play tennis. They didn't have tennis in there. Yeah, we played tennis. What? And I'm the one that got, I got the tennis course taken out. Oh, no. I started teaching all them black boys how to hit a tennis ball. And they didn't like that. They didn't like that. No, they took them tennis course out. Wow. About a year after I was there. I had a... And I taught so many dudes. It's funny how when you go into a place like that, like we go into, leadership shows up. And it's acknowledged. They don't even have to tell nobody, no. It just happens. Yeah, yeah. A leader is a leader. Yeah. You know, you can't... You're a natural leader. Yeah. Because of what you were doing. You were the leader. But could you see leadership before that when you was young? My mom said I always was the head leader. And when I was... We was kids. She was my brother. She was me too. Yeah, we on boss talk one-on-one, one-on-one.
