Making It Is Not Enough: Success Requires Learning How to Maintain It

British rapper and actor Bugzy Malone argues that making it is only the start: maintaining success means continuing to work on yourself and deciding what ambition is for. In a conversation with Chris Williamson, Malone says pain and childhood adversity shaped him but need not determine who he becomes; facing them requires vulnerability, self-accountability and a willingness to change. He sees the next stage not as accumulating more, but as building a life and body of work he can sustain.
