If people believe in your material, they will do whatever it takes to get it done. Even if they don't, but you make it as awesome an experience as possible, they will help you reach your goals.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I really just compete against myself. I look at my previous material and try to surpass what I've done.
You can achieve all the things you want to do, but it's much better to do it with loved ones around you; family and friends, people that you care about that can help you on the way and can celebrate you, and you can enjoy the journey.
If you believe in what you're doing, you'll be successful.
You have to believe in yourself. You have to go out there and love what you are and who you know you are in terms of your craft.
What material success does is provide you with the ability to concentrate on other things that really matter. And that is being able to make a difference, not only in your own life, but in other people's lives.
If you can dream it, then you can achieve it. You will get all you want in life if you help enough other people get what they want.
Believing in yourself and what you do is so important. It took me a long time to find that confidence. If you're an artist and you're taking risks, then you're doing something right if some people don't get it.
My goal in my career is to inspire people, is to get my music out there and have people enjoy it, and have people think of me as an inspirational artist.
To work on great material, what you really end up working on is yourself, your own humanity.
I just continue to look for different material, great material, as good as I can find, and try to go in there and do as good a job as I can do in making it a record. That's all you can expect. That's all that you can do.
