## Post text

_A repost of @SpeakerMcCarthy with nothing added: the words are @SpeakerMcCarthy's, not his._

> RT @SpeakerMcCarthyFor the first six years of my education, I had to go to speech therapy. Now, I'm the Speaker of the House. As my dad always said: It's not how you start, it's how you finish.

## What the media says

**Video transcript** (reposted clip, 0:38), transcribed automatically, so names and numbers may be wrong. Speakers aren't identified, so a voice in it may not be his:

> For the first six years of my education I had to go to speech lessons because I couldn't say my alphabet. I was not the valedictorian. I had to struggle for everything that happened. So what's gonna happen in your life is not gonna come easy. I hope you work at it and when you have a struggle do not give up. One thing my father taught me it's not how you start it's how you finish. So you may not have started with everything you wanted in life but you know what with the work you're doing you can end up with everything you need in life. Thank you very much and God bless.
