My dad was a particularly polite kind of guy, very courteous. So when we got on a bus, he would always encourage me and my younger brother to get up and offer our seat to an old lady. I grew up kind of liking that, thinking, y'know, that's a nice thing, that's a courtesy.

I should be able to look at my accolades and go, Come on, Paul. That's enough. But there's still this little voice in the back of my brain that goes, No, no, no. You could do better. This person over here is excelling. Try harder! It still can be a little bit intimidating.
