I didn't aspire to write and never considered it as a career option.

Don't date a woman without cable (no cable, no SportsCenter).

Learn your audience and know how to reach them and don't sign anything without a good lawyer and a capable agent.

Don't date a woman who gives you a pager number instead of a home number (she's looking for control).

I never stopped believing in my ability or what I was doing. I want to pass that sense of faith and perseverance on to others.

Believe in your work, educate yourself about the business, surround yourself with good people, set goals and timetables and stay focused on them.

Men aren't waiting to do anything besides finding a way to meet the right woman and making sure that bad dates are over in time to catch SportsCenter.
