I never had any real expectations about what sort of success I would have or all the publicity.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've never really sought out publicity.
So I try not to have any actual expectations for myself for any level of success or failure.
If my work was good enough, I would never have to do publicity.
I've never taken the steps to be 'successful': I've never had a manager or signed to a publishing house.
I wanted to be successful, not famous.
I had such high expectations of myself. I was going to be the best mother, the best housewife, the best entertainer, the best nurse, you know - what it was, I was going to be the best. And I could never live up to my expectations.
In my case, of course, people had a lot of expectations, but that didn't pressurise me because I'm pretty confident about my musicality and my talent.
It never really bothered me that I never got the same publicity.
I don't have any expectations of anything.
Other people may not have had high expectations for me... but I had high expectations for myself.
