You have to learn to see the gold in dirt, which means that you try to spot people with potential as well as ideas that have potential.
It's one thing for other people to see potential in you, and it's quite another for you to understand that and see it in yourself.
Talented people almost always know full well the excellence that is in them.
I did my first contest, and I got third, and my dad was, like, 'Wow, she has potential.' And I went back when I was 7, and I won. And my dad's like, 'All right,' and then he dropped everything.
I feel good to know that they recognize the potential of reggae music. And they are exposing it to the world, letting the world hear how beautiful reggae music can be.
Systematically identity top designers as early as possible. The best are often not the most experienced.
I was never top of the class at school, but my classmates must have seen potential in me, because my nickname was Einstein.
The only person that seen something in me was Punch, and probably Ab-Soul. Ab-Soul and Punch was the two niggas that was like "Yeah, Q gon be one of them niggas. Watch." I don't know how they knew but they knew.
I never expected to do what I can, but with my coaching staff and my training and coming to terms with my own ability and my own talent and realizing the potential that there is, I've decided that I want to make a run for it. I'm training, and I'm fighting for a title.
For me, I think it's such a notable point to make that a leader had to believe, a leader had to see that potential.
