I have failed at something I failed the 7th grade. Everything happen for a reason and it was a major lesson to me. Goofing off not caring and trying to impress my peers was not important and now that I’m older I realized that. I just wish I had somebody to sit me down and tell me that at the time but It was too late it and had already been another year school year. I can honestly say I won’t go down that road again.…

If you examine the stories of many celebrities, almost everyone had to overcome some form of failure to rise to the level they are at now.…
