It's no secret that the acting industry is hard. I'm pretty sure every actor is well aware of that, but we do it because we can't imagine ourselves doing anything else (well, at least most of us do it because we are passionate about it, right?)
What messes some people up is that daily reminder of how hard it can be. You know those negative thoughts that usually come from family and friends that most of the time mean no harm - they just want what's best for you and don't want to see you disappointed. HOWEVER, it won't help to keep reminding yourself of the struggles. Instead, remind yourself of the REASON why you are in this business in the first place, surround yourself with positivity, watch inspirational videos, learn more about the stories of people that made it and let yourself find hope and know it is possible. Because IT IS. It IS possible. You can do it.
This post is also a reminder to myself, to keep at it, to never stop. And as soon as I am done writing this I'm going to finally finish my Vision Board (which I have been procrastinating for months) and will remind myself to stay focus. I can do this & you can do it too!
XoXo,
Mariana
