You have to love the doing of what you're doing and not wait for the phone to ring.

You reach a point in your career when the weeks turn into a month or more of the phone not ringing.

There have been times I've finished a big job and thought, 'Great, a couple of weeks off.' But then a couple of weeks turns to three weeks and then after a month you're staring at the phone willing it to ring.

I can't sit around and wait for the telephone to ring.

If I play hard to get, soon the phone stops ringing altogether.

There's nothing in the world more silent than the telephone the morning after everybody pans your play. It won't ring from room service; your mother won't be calling you. If the phone has not rung by 8 in the morning, you're dead.

And when your phone rings, pick it up. Open yourself up to the possibility a phone call offers. Discover this remarkable device called the telephone. It will give you a serious competitive advantage.

You have two alternatives. One: you can put your life on hold and wait for the phone to ring. Two: you run ahead as if your life depended on it.

Not to be arrogant, but I have a lot of hits, so my phone stay ringing, but it's consistent.
