7. Stay True To Yourself

I feel like I€™m giving €œlife lessons€ here, and not necessarily €œsecrets€ I learned in the wrestling business, and you know why that is? THERE ARE NO MORE SECRETS---the internet exposed EVERYTHING. What can I tell you about what goes on backstage that you don€™t already know---what? It€™s all been said! So, I€™m laying out to you the secrets I learned in how it pertains to SUCCEED in the wrestling business!

Well, I can tell you this first hand as it relates to Vince McMahon. He knows these individuals, can smell them a mile away, and at the end of the day---has ZERO respect for them. In any business, you just have to stay true to yourself. Don€™t be afford to throw out your ideas€”if they get shot down, they get shot down---so you throw out some more. LEAD---always LEAD---don€™t ever follow, followers are a dime a dozen€”even in the world of professional wrestling!
