Keep Working Hard And You Can Get

All I Can Do Is Leave It In God's Hands And Hope That My Fans Feel Where I'm Coming From.

I Don't Have To Go Back To Australia Until Next Year To Finish Shooting [the "matrix" Sequels]. It Actually Works Out Great, Because I Have The Time Needed To Support The Album And Tour. ... It's Kind Of Hard Juggling Both Of Them, Because It's Double The Workload. But The Way I Look At Is I Just Let It Work Itself Out, Let It Flow. If I Don't Think About It, It Won't Drive Me Crazy.

There Is Always A Bit Of Pressure To Do A Good Album - To Do Good Work, Period. I Really Put A Lot Of Pressure On Myself, More So Than Other People. But I Try Not To Let That Overwhelm Me To The Point Where I Can't Even Do Good Work. I Just Put It Aside And Do The Best That I Know That I Can.

When You Get Into This Business You Have To Grow Up Quickly. But I Wouldn't Say I've Lost Any Of My Childhood, I've Always Been A Mature Child. My Mom Says I've Been Like That Since I Was Little Kid. I Make Time For My Friends And I Make Time For Things That Other Kids Do. This Is A Business And I Knew What I Was Getting Into. I Make Time For Being A Kid, But I Also Know When To Put On My Business Hat And Go For The Business.

Of Course, The Advantage Is That, Being In This Business, You Get To Learn A Lot, Experience A Lot Of New Things, And You Can Become Real Successful. The Disadvantage Is, Of Course The Negative Media. People May Try To Manipulate You And Control You, And Those Are The Things You Have To Avoid. But If You Maintain Strong Family Values And You Believe In God, You Can Be Successful. So, It's Been Tough, But I've Gotten Through It Because I Stuck With My Family And My Deep Belief In God.
