Be Aggressive

I’ve always been aggressive.
I grew up dirt poor without connections
and the way I built success
was to reach out to people,
to ask for as much as possible,
to leverage every opportunity.

Yes, I get push back.
Some people call me names.
B*tch being one of the faves.
But that is part of the price of doing.
Someone isn’t going to like
ANYTHING you do.

“’Aggressive’ is the best word
I can think of,
and I’m not bothered by it.
I’m very direct
because I’m busy
and I don’t have time to waste.
That can be scary
for a lot of people.”

Be aggressive
and be okay with it.
