5. Use doubt as fuel
When he was a kid his family was selling cheese and milk.
They said he’ll never become a somebody because he was always getting into trouble
He said “I’ll come home in a Benz so big that it won’t be able to enter the gates”
He then went and made it real.

6. Adapt and improvise
His wife is Columbian. He met her in France. Until they had sex she knew he was Italian and his name is Giovanni.
He understood that saying he’s from Romania at that time could hurt his credibility. So he never told her the truth until after they had sex.

7. The woman raises kids, Man works
He said that the mother of the children must focus solely on raising the kids
No work, no career ambitions, no media coverage
Simply making sure everything is ok at home while the man is gone doing business, making sure everyone is fed.
