And that teacher did so much for my life because he branded me brilliant.

And when he branded me brilliant, I didn't push away the label.

I just stuck it on myself.

As you know, with your life, everything is a process.

I never told my mother when I went home.

I never told my sisters when I went home.

So I was fortunate enough to have school teachers and coaches that really believed in me.

Oh my God, my teacher just said I was brilliant.

I never told anybody about it, but I didn't want to let down that teacher for what he said about me.

So my sixth grade teacher asked me to stay after class one day.

So I decided to keep my standard real high.

And I stayed after class and he says, hey, he called me Timmy.

Timmy story.

Timmy.

Because you are so brilliant, which I never heard anybody call me that, because you are so brilliant, I want to know if you want to check out some books from my personal library.

So this is one of the things I'm loving that you're doing, because I remember you way back when you started so many years ago.

He said, this is not for extra credit.

It's just to stir up your brilliance.

I know your whole background and what you did in radio and your aspirations to do TV and then doing TV and all the things that you've done.

What sixth grade teacher tells somebody that?
