If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed.
I always loved music. You know, my parents said I started singing when I was 4, in the car.
I remember when I started off, my first car was a Kia Spectra. With a spoiler kit and some rims.
When 'I'm Sorry' came out and became such a huge hit, that made 'Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree' start selling. Then that became a huge, huge hit.
I'm totally the 'decorate early, start listening to Christmas songs super early' guy. I've just always been that way.
My life started on the banks of the Boyne in County Meath. Navan is the name of the town; only me, Mom, Dad.
Instead of thinking that's a nice tune, you start thinking is it the right pace, is it the right tempo? That is the death nell for artists.
I don't think kids have a problem with death. It's us older ones who are nearer to it, that start being frightened.
The panic attacks - I still have them. They started when I was around 8. They always have to do with my death.
I don't care how pumped up or psyched you are to start a new diet or a new program - that emotion will fade.
I appreciate everything that has been done for me. After a difficult start, I've just followed my dreams.
I design my start-up ventures around my own personal beliefs and values.
Most small-business owners have no financial education when they started. They weren't trained to be entrepreneurs.
What's great about this country is that America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest.
Since I started acting, I always or often find work takes precedence with me. And that is not necessarily a great rule for life.
Grills are how to achieve a great flavor on meats and vegetables. They bring people together. The smell of them getting started is therapeutic.
When I was starting to write, the great influence was T.S. Eliot and after that William Butler Yeats.
Being a recording artist, selling music, selling concerts out, having a reality show, starting film; it's great, it's beautiful.
I've been involved with some huge studio projects that have been bloody awesome. It all starts with a great script, doesn't it?
I started off as a 'Star Trek' fan, and to be able to work on the series was a great honor.
Just remember: to be grateful and thank the people who are there and support you along the way is a great start to success.
