“I Worked In McDonald’s” – Tony Stewart Reveals Harsh Reality of Life as He Dismisses ‘God-Given Talent’ Claim as Myth

Tony Stewart, a three-time NASCAR Cup Series champion, is widely considered to be one of the most talented drivers in motorsports history. However, in a recent interview with Kenny Wallace, Stewart dismisses the notion of God-given talent while offering a reality check on his struggles.

He admits to having worked in McDonald’s along with other “really c*appy jobs,” to support his passion for racing.

Tony Stewart Opens Up About the Struggles within Racing

The idea of God-given talent is a common one. It suggests that some people are simply born with an innate ability to excel in certain areas, without having to work hard for it. This notion is particularly prevalent in motorsports, where drivers are often considered to be either naturally gifted or not. However, Tony Stewart believes that the reality is far more complex than that.

Stewart’s journey to the top of the motorsports world was far from easy. He had to work a variety of jobs to support his passion for racing. He admits that he did not like working real jobs, but he knew that he had to do it if he wanted to pursue his dream.

In a recent conversation with Kenny Wallace on ‘The Kenny Conversation’, Tony opened up and said, “I didn’t like working real jobs, I worked at McDonald’s two different times while I was in school and right after I graduated till I settled in somewhere.”

“I’ve worked some really c*appy jobs along the way to get where we’re at but it was all so I could race & I’ve realized in motorsports, people don’t realize how much works involved in it from a drivers standpoint. Now you talk about car owners and crew guys, it’s a ton of work involved but it’s equally taxing for us as drivers because we constantly have to think about what we’re doing”

The interview with Kenny Wallace offers a glimpse into Tony’s journey and highlights the importance of hard work in achieving success. Tony’s message is clear: success requires hard work and dedication, and there are no shortcuts to achieving one’s goals.

The legendary racer finished as a runner-up in his debut NHRA race at the Las Vegas fall race last year but secured his a win this year, thus adding to his previous victories in NASCAR, NHRA, and IndyCar.

Tony Stewart is a testament to the power of hard work and dedication. Despite his success, he remains humble and credits his achievements to his hard work and perseverance.
