Whatever it is you're doing, whether it's your career or a particular focus, if you're trying to be the best you can possibly be, then you'll be putting that pressure on yourself.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I am putting pressure on myself to do my best and perform to my potential.
I always want to be the best at what I do. That doesn't mean compared to other people, but just in what you do.
I know what I am, and what I have to do in my profession, so I can handle the pressure. It's the way I think.
I'm pretty demanding with myself and my work, and I always put a lot of pressure on myself. I try to do the best job I can every time.
A lot of times, in the beginning of my career, I put pressure on myself just because I wanted to perform so well. I just wanted to be perfect.
If you want to remain the best, you have to keep on doing what you are good at.
You've got to be the best at what you can do - be the best at it! And the best has to be the best; you can't just fiddle around and hope.
I want to be successful, and I want to do good, but I also want to be myself.
One thing I've had to realize in my career is that I can't do it all. Sometimes we put a lot of pressure on ourselves to make sure we're writing the next hit. There are other people out there, and that's what they do every day, and they have strengths that I don't have.
You take on what's right in front of you. You want to do the best you can with the opportunities that you have.
