"I go, 'Even if I say no, I'm actually doing you a favour, because it's a rough, brutal town. And when you get out in front of people, sometimes you only get one shot.' I want them to realize that you've got to be ready, and there's no such thing as luck. You create your own luck. You go out there and say, 'OK, I'm good. I'm ready to go.'"
