The more you rehearse, the better your acting will become. Rehearse every single day. You want to be an actor? Get to the acting. It's challenging to be consistent. It's challenging to be accountable. It's challenging to build goals and sub-goals and create real progress day in and out. This is particularly so when you have other jobs that you must hold. It's challenging to pay the bills in LA. It's challenging to remain positive after betrayals, lies, superficial bu...ll shit, politicians and politics, nepotism (happening to others), loud mouths, posers, etc. No matter what, you keep a great attitude. I hope you never have to experience someone taking their own life. Even on that day, you don't get a free pass. You must remain positive (unless you are hidden away alone.... but I don't recommend that. On a day with pain, you must act. Give the emotion to your work. See Severe Loss and the Actor). All of the challenges, particularly those you don't see coming can be a great source of positivity. Challenging can be very good indeed. Don't fear the challenge. -Allen Levin (Lifebook’s Acting Coach)
