What's wrong with you? This is a question that I heard throughout my life.
From the Catholic school nuns I spent 10 years of my early education with, to the CEOs of industry leading businesses.
I was used to this question but I wasn't offended by it.
I just figured there was a lot wrong with me.
I never passed a year of school until eleventh grade, when I discovered I was good at building.
Looking back, it is pretty clear that I had a learning disability, but with no diagnosis back then, I was on my own to figure out how to manage what was wrong with me.
Thinking outside of the box wasn't really an option for me, because I had no box! Instead I created a successful method of trying and trying and trying again.
I learned that if I tried enough stupid, crazy, what's wrong with you kind of stuff, eventually something would work.
And you know what.
I was right, boy was I Wright!.
