This morning (9/17), Jazzys World TV dropped an interview with Paul Heyman taped at Fanatics Fest last month.

When asked to share a life lesson that shaped or helped him on his journey to success, Heyman responds with:

I think I'm successful just because I never really wanted a real job in my life and I have successfully avoided having a real job for the entire width of my existence. It was probably from my mother saying you're a schmuck and nobody's going to like you so do what you want with your life anyway.

When asked about his favorite WWE moment, he explains:

I haven't lived it yet. Every moment I've been in WWE has been my favorite, which means the next moment I have, that will become my favorite... I always strive for tomorrow to be better than today, and for the day after tomorrow to be better than tomorrow.

Jazzy then asks Heyman to share his proudest moment:

My proudest moment is the fact that I have made it all the way here, to date, to this interview, and have not been fired yet.

To which she responds, "well, I am very proud to hear that."
