I'm always pretty tense about everything when it comes to work.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I practice staying calm all the time, beginning with situations that aren't tense.
If you're a writer, you're always working.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I feel pressed and tense almost every day of my life about something or other. And I think it's the one thing, as I look into people's eyes, that I think I share with almost everybody.
If you think negatively, it's hard to get out of tense moments.
I've always had that knack for staying pretty even keel and the more the situation gets tense the more I see things clearly and I think that's just a knack that I've always had.
When I'm working, I'm working and I'm focused on that day's work.
I've always put myself intensely into my work.
I tend to notice work.
It's hard to wind down, but then I beat myself up because I have a tense back.
I'm very unpredictable, but at the end of the day, I'm working. Sometimes things change in my life. It's like, 'Hold up - that ain't feel good. That felt good.' And that's how I look at anything I do.
