Put your head down and work as hard as you can because there is always someone better out there.

I always assume that one day someone will come and try to do better so you always have to go beyond your limits.

There is always strength in numbers. The more individuals or organizations that you can rally to your cause, the better.

Nobody likes a smart alec. Which is why it's always better for your career to be wrong and in company rather than right and on your own.

The hard part of writing at all is sitting your ass down in a chair and writing it. There's always something better to do, like I've got an interview, sharpening the pencils, trimming the roses. There's always something better to do. Going to a writer's club?

I played a lot of baseball growing up, and I always hit better if I kept moving before the pitch instead of standing still in the batter's box. I think a waggle does the same thing in the golf swing. It keeps you relaxed and gets your body ready to hit the ball.
