“You don't win an Olympic gold medal with a few weeks of intensive training. There's no such thing as an overnight opera sensation. Great law firms or design companies don't spring up overnight...

“Another thing that I like and that's fun for me is to try and talk and play music at the same time, because I feel like I'm learning something.
