Balance is so key...and not resting on it is as important.<BR/><BR/>I've found this with actors (Which I am considered at times)...they often wait for "their next big audition" or 'thier chance to prove they've got it'...but that isn't handed out as frequently as most like to dream.<BR/><BR/>Without an utter relentless refusal to accept anything less than more from yourself each and every time is to accept being a step away from the door you were reaching for in the first place. But is also doesn't matter if that door is open if you've lost everything outside of it when you get there...<BR/><BR/>I'll stop talking, I'm confusing myself. nice post.<BR/><BR/>JamesSystemaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08853683059727909656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17813352.post-1147799118916999912006-05-16T11:05:00.000-06:002006-05-16T11:05:00.000-06:00Good sound advice (packed full of wisdom and truth...Good sound advice (packed full of wisdom and truth).<BR/><BR/>I'm new to many games (screenwriting, and soon... FATHERHOOD!), and have chased after my share of dreams in 35 years on the planet. One thing I know (which rings true with what you stated) is that you can't put all of your eggs in one basket -- you can't put all of your hopes and dreams on a single 'thing'. If that 'thing' is all you've got (or the only 'thing' you allow yourself to have), you have become a three-legged chair. Guess what happens when you try and sit in down... BOOM!<BR/><BR/>I'm truly blessed in life (I have a great wife, a nice job, a comfy home, a great family, and now a little one on the way). If nothing ever happens with my screenplays, I can reflect with pride over having created one in the first place (STILL an achievement in and of itself). The process is a lot of fun... but it is not ALL that I am, nor will it ever be ALL that I am capable of. I paint... draw... sculpt... write... and dream constantly. It's a single outlet.<BR/><BR/>You have a very thoughtful blog which I appreciate very much!<BR/><BR/>Best Regards,<BR/>~DevinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17813352.post-1147790336258225752006-05-16T08:38:00.000-06:002006-05-16T08:38:00.000-06:00Billy, Optimistic and WC -- thanks.
