Football Changed My Life And It Gave

I Always Keep Moments That Were Defining For Me In My Past And Challenged Me In My Past - From Getting Evicted Out Of My Apartment When I Was 14 Years Old, To Being Cut From The Cfl [canadian Football League] And Only Having 7 Bucks In My Pocket, To Bouts With Depression - I Keep Moments Like That Very Close To Me Because It Continues To Be Great Motivators For Me. It Helps Keep Me Grounded, And It's A Good Reminder Of How Things Work, And I Never Want To Go Back To That.

I Never Wanted To Stay In One Genre; I Never Wanted To Be Pigeon-holed Or Defined As The Actor Who Only Worked In One Genre. I Want To Be Able To Work In All Different Genres. For Me It's Fun, And That's How I Grow As An Actor.

I'm A Long Way From Being Evicted [at The Age Of 14], But I'll Never Forget It. I'll Never Forget The Feeling. I'll Never Forget My Mom Crying And I'll Never Forget The Thought I Had: 'well The Only Thing I Can Do Is Just Go Build My Body,' Because The Men Who Were Successful That I Knew Of - Stallone, Arnold, Bruce Willis - They Were Men Of Action.

Any Time I'm On-screen It Is Realistic Because I Don't Pull My Punches Or Anything Like That.

Success At Anything Will Always Come Down To This: Focus & Effort. And We Control Both.
