text:  Once I went to my father and told him that I had decided I was going to be a global music star. And so my father bought me a keyboard, and he said, if you learn to read music and play this, then I'll help you. Another time I went to him and announced that I was going to run a hair salon. See, I had seen one for sale in our neighborhood, and I was very convinced that I could run it after fifth grade every day.
