Budding entrepreneurs can certainly learn from the Diddy [GQ](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nba-allstar-collection-1) interview. The [music mogul](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-menswear-campaign) discussed how he motivates himself to improve, every day of his life. Diddy's "Can't Stop, Won't Stop" mentality is what has pushed him to come this far -- and to have no end in sight.

The gem of the Diddy GQ feature was the visual: Diddy dangling from a probably expensive chandelier, in a [turquoise bathrobe with matching sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-drop). Best of all, he had his knickers hanging out!
