The only thing that is under control is your effort.
I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
I think the most important thing is to be honest and truthful.
The best actors are the ones who can make you forget they are acting.
