“YOU HAVE TO ask for what you want. You have to identify what it is you need to get where you need to go and then speak that. When you see someone else being successful and your first instinct is to tear them apart, that’s just a sign of you feeling unhappy with your achievements. Whenever you feel like that — & we all feel like that sometimes, like ‘ah, somebody’s doing it. Somebody’s popping a lot’ — use that as fuel to go hard.”

oh how I love nicki.
