My only advice is to try to get the job that's most like the job you want, rather than the one that's more prestigious. Always try to be the talent.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Try out lots of different options early in your career. Then watch the responses: how you feel, what the market values, what people appreciate about you. It's the only way to find work that's uniquely right for you.
You'll sacrifice a lot of things in the early part of your career to be successful, but to be ahead of your competitors, you have to work hard.
You have got to attract the brightest and the best, but the brightest and best won't stay unless they see real career options.
I don't want to be the biggest superstar. I want to be good at my job, and I want my work to go down in posterity. I am working for the longevity of my career.
If you have the talent, you should have the opportunity.
Talent is always more interesting - ambition is not interesting. If you have talent, you have to find ways of expressing it, but you may not be a success in the world's terms.
A good career is a long-lasting career. When you're there in every competition doing a good job you're a part of an elite, and that's the most important thing.
My advice to anyone would be to focus on your current job and be the best at it. The rest will take care of itself.
Don't let anything but your talent affect your success.
I never want to be an artistic bully, and put myself above anyone else... or be more prestigious than anyone else. You like what you like, and you have to take that as you want it.
