Expand commentI have met thousands of actors. Many were amazing at their craft but couldn't sustain a living. Some gave it up to pursue other dreams. I knew one actor who was in class for 20 years before he landed a series regular. He had an amazing wife who helped him achieve this dream. Everyone is different with unique circumstances. Only you can know your limits.
So true Kristi! Have a great webinar today!

Expand commentFirst off your dream and reality are not the same thing - what you dream of doing or being you might actually not like at all when you're actually doing it - all you can do is move towards those dreams and you will learn a lot on the way about yourself. So you should never quit pursuing your dreams but I think you must always adapt and refine those dreams as you get feedback. your dream might be to be a big comedy star - however, maybe you just aren't funny but people love your dramatic work. Out of this you might decide to either be a dramatic actor and enjoy the success or you might go back to college to explore what makes people laugh and what doesn't. Or you could host a comedy podcast or something else. OR you could keep insisting you're going to be a comedy star despite no feedback from the universe and zero indicators or results - to me this is the least enlightened path.
