Creating art (music, books, films, etc.) can be beautiful and liberating, but trying to sell art, well, that is the movie business. There are few winners, and lots and lots of losers.

Don't take yourself too seriously - learn to laugh.

What is it about business that makes us laugh - when things go wrong, which they do all the time (why, I still wish I knew) then we need to laugh.

Business, like life, is funny. We all go through difficult times, and we all have to face curve balls and challenges, each and every week. And we need to laugh when things are funny. If we take it all too seriously we will go mad.

I battle to fall asleep at night. My mind races every other night. I have always been like this, for as long as I can reminder.

I am tough minded, but not hard hearted.

When things go right (and they go right a lot - you just got to keep trying) there is nothing to really laugh about.
