While being interviewed by IM, on the subject of Hodgkin's Lymphoma, which he had and was treated for:
IronMagazine: What have you learned from the experience that you can share with others?
Will Brink: Mostly that people are far tougher than they think, that life will always find a way to let you know you are not the boss, and you better appreciate what you have. It's allowed me to have empathy with people from all walks of life I think. At the same time, I don't have much sympathy for those who are not willing to take account of themselves and their behavior, and take responsibility for where ever it is they find themselves in this life.
I just f'kin love that quote, and is a great philosophy to live by. Just had to share it. Check out the interview if you like.
