Now of course there are some actors who don’t have to take that long road due to family connections already in the industry. There are many roads to take in acting which one an individual chooses determines the outcome. Approaching the long road ahead in acting it’s always good to surround oneself with like-minded individuals. If no-one in the arena of life fits that role then look elsewhere in the form of success stories from other aspiring actors who became successful. The case may not necessarily be an aspiring actor but someone who set goals for their life and accomplished them. Here’s some advice on accomplishing goals from a successful entrepreneur, Lately I’ve noticed quite a disconnect in the goals people have for themselves and the plans they have for achieving those goals. Having goals is an important step towards living intentionally, but it’s only one step. There are many other things you’ll need to do to achieve those goals. I’m afraid that some people are under the impression that setting goals is the most important step in achieving goals. As if after setting goals, the rest of the details will “work themselves out.” That just isn’t true. Setting goals is really only a small step towards achieving your goals. In between the two will be a long road and lots of hard work. (Barr) Preparing oneself for a career in acting takes a stance of no matter what, success is the only option. The assurance of that option is how an individual positions him/herself and with whom. Sometimes individuals may receive roles and foolishly accept a role that is a “bad look”. The “bad look” role now has branded them to the world of producers, directors, agents and fellow actors. In the “bad look” case an actor who had been given an opportunity choose the wrong role and now must work even harder to prove or to remove the “bad look”. There are so many loopholes to correct etiquette in the world of acting. All of which include decisions on managers, agents, scripts, and relating to the public. An aspiring actor should not just see a dream and follow it but should evaluate what it takes to get there and prepare. The aspiring actor must know and understand the road is long and hard and the competition is like a sea of swimming sharks. Preparation for the bad and the good is necessary in the road to acting in films. Preparation is important. There are steps an individual must take to ensure a right road to a career in acting. Taking all the steps doesn’t mean it will happen overnight. The important point here is taking the right steps to be on the right road. Preparation is not overnight either. Preparation takes time and research. The first thing an individual should do is position themselves in the film community. Hollywood is not the only place actors’ act. Most cities have their own film community. If not then find out where the nearest city is that does have a film community and drive out there. Get involved see what’s going on. Socialize with other aspiring actors, make-up artists, aspiring film directors, producers, etc. Start where you are first and then branch out. Some individuals make the choice to start out in LA. Starting out at the top just like at the bottom takes just as much hard work and sacrifice. Location doesn’t make the road easy. it’s the sacrifice, motivation and hard work that make the road accessible.
