Favorite Quotes from Goldust
Goldust doesn’t get along well with Bischoff as he seems to be much more of a free-spirit and open individual than Bischoff is. Goldust often spoke out against Vince McMahon and the way he runs things at WWF. He did so most notably at the August 1996 King of the Ring pay per view when Bischoff put all of the wrestlers into a cage and forced them to compete in a wrestling match.
“I’m very hands-on backstage. I like to teach and train and help those guys.”
Professional wrestling is a scripted entertainment business. In this industry, not all wrestling is scripted. Some wrestling is unscripted. In this interview, Goldust speaks about this unscripted wrestling.
“People like you are the reason. You’re the one that’s here, and these guys don’t, but you’re here, right. And you started these schools for no reason. In the old days, the WWE, it was tough. There was no structure, and guys didn’t know where they were going, but I knew where I was going. It took some time to get there, but it got there, and I’m just here because of that.

1. Train Your Mind
When you have a brain disease your mental health depends on how well your brain is working or not.
People spend a lifetime pursuing happiness. They chase their dreams and addictions, religions, even other people hoping to fill the emptiness that plagues them. The irony is they never needed to search for it, it was always sitting there within them waiting to be noticed. Train your mind to be positive.
2. Take Care of Yourself
Don’t feel bad if you don’t get the job you want. It happens to almost everybody.
3. Celebrate
There is no point in doing things because of yourself, or in celebrating the accomplishments of others.
