I've been solo since 1996, so I've been doing it for a while now.

Picture yourself in your minds eye as having already achieved this goal. See yourself doing the things you'll be doing when you've reached your goal.

My music has always been my solo project.

I have always wanted a solo career, deep in the darkest pit of myself, but I didn't dare admit it to myself even. It took me a long time to confront my fears.

I have a very distinct goal all the time that I'm working toward, and I love the way it makes me live.

As soon as I accomplish one goal, I replace it with another one. I try not to get too far ahead of myself. I just say to myself, 'All right, well, I'd like to headline a tour,' and then when I get there, we'll see what my next goal is.

You have to be the one setting your own goals, trying to achieve those goals.

I'm very honest about the things I struggle with and I need to work on to survive as a solo artist.

Once you achieve one goal, you should be looking forward to trying to build onto the next thing, and not just getting comfortable with what you're doing.

I want to be successful, and I want to do good, but I also want to be myself.
