What did Ben have to learn how to control in his life to become successful ? 

If there was one thing that stopped Ben Carson from reaching his dreams, it was his temper. He is known for his fiery temper. He was very impatient and he did not like it when things do not go his way. He may become angry for the slightest reasons and this has made it harder for him to cope with the losses that he went through.

It is a good thing that he realized that his anger, his temper, is stopping him from reaching his full potential. After he was able to control this, he started to focus more on the things that matter. He was able to reach his dream to become a medical doctor and he has some accomplishments under his name.
