Better Than Complaining
I read this over at Reg’s blog:
Good God, some of the new young actors say they don’t know whether they wanted to be actors or not! I cannot understand this. To me, it is like saying you can’t make up your mind whether or not you love a certain woman. If you don’t then take a walk.
In acting, as in love, there is no place for indifference.
Instead of complaining about how much I dislike this or that, I’m going to start learning to do other things.
First up: learning to write well. Who knows if I’ll ever be able to make a career out of it, but it will help me in whatever else I choose to do. From now on I will be doing 15 minutes of free-writing when I wake up, and 30 minutes of writing directed at a purpose every evening.
Second up: who the hell knows. Any ideas?
To quote Tyler Durden, self-improvement is masturbation.
