It’s a hard job. It means giving up some things, but on the other hand they keep saying you can have it all. You can’t really have it all so easy. You can do a little of this and little of that.

The truth is, you can't have everything you want without making sacrifices. You have to balance doing a little of this and a little of that, instead of trying to do everything at once.
