When David is asked about motivation and how he keeps excelling at what he does, this is what he has to say:
“All I can tell you is that if you have lived at all. you’ve acquired some baggage, relationships, mistakes, shortcomings, trauma…don’t make the mistake of blocking this out! This is the fuel, the alchemist needs to turn Lead…or iron in this case into gold! Training is the key to connecting your mind and body. The better connected these channels, the better you create and empower your dreams.”
