If you go on stage with the wrong attitude, or something in your performance is off, you can lose an audience in the first minute. That first minute is crucial.
Having a positive mental attitude is asking how something can be done rather than saying it can't be done.
I went to the Performing Arts School and studied classical ballet. That attitude is something that's put into your head. You are never thin enough.
A positive attitude is something everyone can work on, and everyone can learn how to employ it.

I am not the most courageous guy in the world outside of the court. Being alone in the dark is something I don't like.
Sitting on a bedroom floor crying is something that makes you feel really alone. If someone's singing about that feeling, you feel bonded to that person.
When you love somebody, or something, it's amazing how willing you are to overlook the flaws.
I discovered something amazing, which has caused a lot of controversy - the fountain of youth. I have to keep it a secret!
