It's a tough gig. Here's the Logo, as quoted by Jonathan Abrams on Grantland: "All your life when you're growing up in a household like I grew up in and having a different type of personality — I'm basically a soft person — you're always trying to figure out a way to try and please someone, and you can never please anyone, OK? The good things you did, sometimes you were getting punished for it. It was more than punishment. It was worse than punishment. I've never been a conventional thinker, even when I was little. I think that might have a lot to do with it. Was I trying to prove something to myself? Was I trying to prove something to others? Winning sometimes didn't do it because the place you most want to be accepted was in your own household, and when you weren't accepted there, it made you really wonder is it even worth it? At the end of it, I could immerse myself in something that made me feel good. Just the competition made me really feel good. I liked that, trying to get better at something."
