You have to be willing to be misunderstood

You will never be successful if you're not willing to be misunderstood. If you start acting different, normal people will not understand why. They're going to criticize you. They're going to talk about you, not invite you to things. It means it's working. It means that you're separating yourself from the normal people doing the same old, same old. Last year was this year. They're 75 years old, but they don't get 75 years of experience. They have one year of experience repeated 75 times. Don't be that person.
