“The great goal of the backlash is to nurture a cultural class war, and the first step in doing so, as we have seen, is to deny the economic basis of social class.

“Sometimes when you hear so much and everybody is praising you, you can get lost in that. You can start thinking that you are on a higher pedestal than everyone else. So I try to stay level headed, humble and the best way to do that is to not really acknowledge it that much. I just keep grinding and working as hard as I can. I also set my goals higher so that I don't have time to be content with my place in life and in my career.” ThinkingWayTryingI CanSometimesHardLostGoalLevelsCareersHigherPraiseHumbleBest WayAcknowledgePedestalPlace In LifeLevel Headed Author:Kevin Hart
