"All I had done was to improve on their strategy, and it was the beginning of a very important lesson in life--that anytime you find someone more successful than you are, especially when you're both engaged in the same business--you know they're doing something you aren't" (Haley 21).
When first reading this book, I didn't think that I would relate to Malcolm at all. But, after reading this quote, I realized that even he had something to say about life that even relates to the generation of today. I've always wanted to know what to do to make more successfull decisions in life. But, I've never had the ability to put it into words. When I read what he had to say about life decisions/strategies, Malcolm made it clear that first I have to admit that I am wrong, and second I have to change what I am doing and find out what they are. It's a very simple, but at the same time complicated process that's hard to do, especially if you are subborn like myself. But, when reading what Malcolm X had to say about strategies in life, it is clear why he is known throughout history, he was extraordinary from the beginning till the end.
