“When you get in the middle of a career and you're successful, people come and offer you things. My biggest fear was that if you try to do something else and you're trying to build your music career, and then you say, "I'm going to go do a movie," and you're terrible, you can really hurt your music career because as a musician, the goal is to be cool. You're playing the guitar and you're in front of all these people and your vibe is to be as cool as you can possibly be.” PeopleIfsTryingGoalHurtCareersSuccessfulMiddleFrontsTerribleOffersMusicianGuitarSuccessful PeopleBeing CoolBiggest FearMusic Career Author:Tim McGraw
