Why Failing & Risking That You May ‘Suck’ is Essential to Success…LIVE FROM AMAW LA!
Sometimes acting is just a JOB, but we are so much more than that. At Anthony Meindl’s Actor Workshop we believe the core of WHO YOU ARE is what matters.
We have to remember our talent is celebrated in booking a job, but our talent is not just a job. Your talent is in how you see the world, what you bring to life, to be curious. One manifestation of it, is a job, but remember — we are not machines, you’re not a machine!
Wanting to come and learn, that’s talent.
We’re also nature, and the universe, the stars, the sea.
We’re the bees and flowers.
Get out of the label that society poses on being ‘successful’ by industry’s measurements. We have to remember self care is important, because there are landmines everywhere. In being a struggling actor, or the landmines in booking the job! Dreams coming true still have landmines. Life is about getting through it without placing the meaning upon the achievement. Guess what, shows end! Then what?
As artists we have to keep learning and having fun, and stop putting so much pressure on the job.
