When you come here as a refugee, the
00:00:02
country is saying, "We'll take you on."
00:00:03
And so, I think there is a burning
00:00:05
desire to prove to everyone, I am not a
00:00:08
burden on this country. I know you gave
00:00:09
me a shot. I promise you, I will
00:00:11
contribute. There was a time when my dad
00:00:13
really wanted to get a degree. He didn't
00:00:15
need to cuz he was making okay money. He
00:00:17
was a Tyler and then drove taxis at
00:00:20
night, but on the weekends would also
00:00:21
manage a KFC. Oh, three jobs. Yeah. The
00:00:24
hustle is deep. All the children of
00:00:25
migrants and refugees listening to this
00:00:27
will know exactly what I mean. The
00:00:28
hustle is deep. It's the main reason why
00:00:30
I work so hard now is because I'm like,
00:00:33
who are you to not work hard? You know,
00:00:35
like, how can you not work hard when
00:00:36
your parents went through that? Your
00:00:38
uncle went through that. My granddad
00:00:39
just kind of like mowed lawns and
00:00:41
trimmed people's trees like a madman
00:00:43
until he had enough to buy a house. And
00:00:45
he bought a house.
