Reasons you CAN follow your dream and become an actor

All too often people give up on their dream of becoming an actor – obstacles can get in the way and make you dream seem unachievable. So many people give up on their dream too quickly or never even get started on following them.
It is all too easy to list reasons why you can not achieve your dream of acting:
  • I can’t afford to
  • I am not good enough
  • I’ve been turned down too many times
  • I need to get ‘a proper job’
  • I’m not one of the lucky ones
Thinking about dreams in this fashion mean you will always fail before you even have a chance of beginning.
This is not what you deserve!
Instead of defeating yourself why not think of all the reasons you CAN follow your dream
Reasons your dream IS within reach

    I can because I deserve to
    You deserve to be remarkable, you deserve to have a huge dream. If you do not leave your mark on this world then you will be forgotten and you are too wonderful to be forgettable.
    We are all born to be great, living small makes you small. You heart longs for you to live big and be big and that is why it gives us our dreams.
  • Go Confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you’ve imagined.

    I already have the courage to follow my dream
    Your dream just needs courage to follow it – once you follow it then it will grow and come true. You have the courage within you to start living your dream.
    Unleash your dreams – do it for you because you don’t care what other people think or care.
    Do it because you can.
  • Hold fast to dreams. For if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams. For when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow.
    Langston Hughes
