1. It surprised me that they had no schooling and that they were just bike mechanics. I would have to say that the answer is the same to previous question. I admire that someone without schooling can do something so great. They attempted several times to fly the plane and failed many times. They kept trying and changing things until they got it right.
2. One thing I noticed is they were obviously good at being mechanics and working on things with their hands.
3. The one thing I would say is I always see it as confusing when people from such humble backgrounds are able to overcome and achieve goals when they come from nothing.
4. I would ask them how did they deal with failure? I just want to know if it bothered them or just made them work harder. How amazing did it feel when you had the first success? I want to know how great it must have felt to finally get it right.
5. I believe their opinion of hard work is to wake up and give it your all when working on your goal. It is to give up some personal life to achieve your goal. I completely agree with them on what is hard work.
Hey Peter, great work as usual. I like the detail you went into on your book. It sounds like you really knew what you were reading about. I like how you spoke on their origin story on how they were bike mechanics and never formally attended school. I'd also like to know how the people you're talking about dealt with failure. However, I'm not sure who you are in fact talking about, as I do not see the title of the book in your post.
