I pride myself on being a positive person. I take on challenges and find solutions to problems. But I have to tell you it's not easy being an actor. The dream, passion, craft, acting, it challenges you in every way. It will challenge you financially, physically, mentally and it will all funnel into an emotional challenge.
And sometimes yes, sometimes I even get the blues, the Constant Rejection Blues. When I get into this rut, its hard to get out of it. I don't even know I'm in it until I notice the candy wrappers and fatty foods I've inhaled. By this point I'm feeling pukey sick and I'm finally sick of feeling blue about not getting that national KFC commercial, that is now playing on TV. Turn it off and get active.
I think its healthy to feel these feelings, acknowledge them and get out of them as soon as you can. Because when I've purged myself out of these toxic feelings I come up with creative ways to keep me happy, like starting this blog for instance. When I'm back to ME, I am ready once again to take the challenge and do it all over again.
