People think that because of my nature and the tone of my voice that I'm stupid, and that's hard.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You have to be willing to accept the idea that people may think you're stupid.
People may hear your words, but they feel your attitude.
I think that when people look at me, and they look at my height and my voice and my coloring, they automatically think, 'Tough.'
Don't let people talk you into what they think is you.
People think that I'm mean because I'm quiet, and I don't really go out places or because I don't really say too much. On the other hand, people think that I'm soft because I may not handle myself the way other people handle themselves. That's just not me. They don't know my background or none of that stuff.
I think people think I'm harder and more arrogant and cocky than I am - because I know how to put on a front, but it's nothing like who I am inside.
Because I'm a sweet, kind guy, everybody thinks I'm an idiot, I'm weak.
There are so many people who will try and make you feel like your opinion doesn't matter, and I've learned how important it is to use your voice.
I think, for a long time, people just did not know what to do with me. I looked like a Barbie doll, and then I had this voice like I spend my life in a bar, and I said things that were alarming and had ideas that didn't make sense.
I think it's a given that people know what I can do vocally.
