doors dancing rooms
I have the picture of Barack [Obama] and me dancing right outside of my dressing room door, I see it every single day, and it makes me very happy.
nice worry sitting
I like sitting at outdoor restaurants; it would be nice to go someplace on the street and not worry about somebody taking my picture while I'm about to take a bite of something.
golf practice worry
I always worry when someone's a good golfer. It's like you shouldn't have time to be good at anything. You should just be a politician and you shouldn't have time to practice golf.
airplane hair want
I talked to Beyonce and she wants to learn how to speak Arabic and she wants to jump out of an airplane. I don't want to do that. I just don't want to wash my hair every day.
energy emphasis
We put the wrong emphasis on what beauty is and what health is. Health is being vibrant and having energy and being happy.
morning nice meditation
Meditation is helping me learn to sit still. Twenty minutes of meditation in the morning is a nice way to start my day. If you can actually sit still and really get to that place of silence, you realize what's important and what's not important. Little things don't usually get to me anymore.
yesterday tomorrow being-the-best
Above all, I strive to be the best I can - to be better than I was yesterday and better tomorrow.
gratitude feelings living-my-life
I don't really ever live my life in fear. I really live my life in gratitude and feeling positive for the most part.
healthy way-to-live looks
If success is really dependent on someone liking you or not liking you, and you have to teeter on that kind of tightrope of how you're supposed to act and how you're supposed to look and who you are, it's just not a healthy way to live.
want energy comment
I get to do stand-up every single day. I love that live energy exchange between the audience and myself, and to get to say the things I want to say and comment on.
moving perfect worry
I get my dance moves from just moving around and listening to music and not really worrying about if it's perfect or not.
believe names design
There's always time to do things that you're passionate about. ... If my name helps get something out there that I believe in then I am going to produce it. ... Design is really my true love.
taken looks needs
Sometimes something being taken away from you is exactly what you need to take a look at yourself.
mean thinking laughing
I think people need to laugh everyday. Whether the economy is good or bad, I think the most important thing is to laugh and to feel positive, if you are laughing at something positive. But if you are laughing at mean jokes then it's a wash.
