I have found that what drives me is the desire to prove, to myself and to my peers, that I can do what I set out to do and build something that matters.

Touring doesn't kill me and I can handle it.

I had a desire to prove to myself that I was actually in control - that I wasn't a puppet.

Blueprints are for Harvard MBAs. I dropped out of college.

I am not in competition with my peers; I am in competition with myself.

I think if I ever stopped pushing myself, I would revert quickly to quite repetitive, restrictive behaviour. But in pushing myself and concentrating on what I can do, I think I can contribute to society. And that gives me the desire to keep pushing, to see what I'm capable of. The thing to do is not to stop.
