When you get older, you start to doubt, and you put limitations on yourself. But little Teyonah had no fear.
I'm lucky that I got to start acting when I was so young, and people put me in these movies. A lot of people don't get to play these parts because they start a little older.
As you get a little older and start drinking a bit more coffee, you start talking about big-boy things a little more.
There are times you start to doubt yourself a little bit but you have to snap out of it.
As we get older, our world gets smaller and we start to doubt and question. We are really suspicious of difference.
Fear is ubiquitous in human life. It starts in infancy with our primal state of helplessness, where we can see what's going on but we can't move to get it. As we grow older we become a little more able to get what we want but then we're going to die so that gives fear another boost.
Nothing important was ever accomplished without chutzpah. Columbus had chutzpah. The signers of the Declaration of Independence had chutzpah. Don't ever aim doubt at yourself. Laugh at yourself, but don't doubt yourself.
You get to a certain age and you start comparing and being uncomfortable in one's body. And then you get to a place where you start to love yourself, accept yourself, celebrate and honor yourself.
I'm just concerned that if I get older, people aren't going to enjoy me as much as when I was younger, because I had a great voice for a little girl, but I mean, my voice can't get any bigger when I'm older.
You get older. You start having hopes for other people rather than yourself.
I think you never want to limit yourself to one style of anything. Why put those limitations on yourself?
Once you get older, you get a little closer to yourself, intimate.
As you get older, you're not afraid of doubt. Doubt isn't running the show. You take out all the self-agonizing.
As you get older, you start trying to eat a little bit better, and just do a little better.
Self-doubt does more to sabotage individual potential than all external limitations put together.
When you are 16 there is no fear whatsoever. As you get older you play in more important games and that is when you start thinking about what will happen if you win or lose.
Sometimes you start a little further back from the starting line. And you're going to have to work a little bit harder, and push it faster to get to the finish. I'm willing to put in the work, to compensate for other things, to get ahead, to get to where I want to be.
