He shared his realization that says, “Sometimes, when it comes to my realization of the situation, I forget that I’m that guy. I forget that I trained that hard and became a fighter and stuff. I had to be scary then. I don’t have to be scary anymore. I have to be funny. I’m funny now. That’s the number one factor and survival in life is adapt, adaptation.”
Tyson continued, “You got to be able to adapt. You have to know who you can be at certain times in your life. No one knows who they are. Because if you knew who you were right now, you’d be really limited. You know, because life is about change. You will be took, then.”
