Kindness becomes kindness

• Kindness becomes kindness

This Traveling Adventure can be tough on any soul. Between rejections, hard work falling short, even tripping over my own feet; there is nothing more off putting than rudeness. Rudeness is one reason the local level of entertainment is failing. Comedians, musicians, actors, writers, everyone involved in entertainment on a local level are fighters. But, they are fighting the wrong people. They are fighting each other. Not all people, obviously, I am generalizing. My fear is this is a bad habit being taught to newer people each year and thus corrupting the system.

I run into people about once a week. I mean, I don't actually run into them. I see where I am running. In fact, I walk most places. I am too old for running... getting back on topic. About once a week a rude person finds their way into my path. Either having an attitude or attacking what it is I am doing. What I am doing with my own career, or with Top of the Bottom Pile. Either way, why attack it? What is so wrong about wanting to work with everyone. This life is short, teams are needed. Hell, a business will fold under itself if you don't have the correct team working with you.

There is a firm belief which I live by; Be nice to everyone, because you never know who someone is or who they know. Besides that fact of opportunities being squandered because a person is a dick; remember the concept of success. People who work together have longevity. Adam Sandler is a great example. People might not be enjoying his movies of late, but who cares!? He is doing what he loves still, and most of all, he does it with the people he loves. His friends. He even helps his friends get things off the ground for themselves. My goal in life is to be at a point I can do that. Don't tell anyone, but I am bringing all my friends with me.

Have questions!? Email me those questions and I'll answer them. What kind of questions? Any and all questions: Business, relationship, financial, about the entertainment world, living the dream, ANYTHING! Peace in harmony

Poetry in motion

• Poetry in motion

Being an entertainer is a struggle. It becomes a battle after every failed audition, bomb on stage, lack of ticket sales, and of course any expression of art turning to a flop. Even when you don't feel your creative juices flowing, that can push you to hide. There comes a point when it feels easier to run away and get a “real” job, than continuing on. Every performer has ups and downs. It comes with this job. You must have your “A” game every night, every day, every moment... oh, and you are told you should also come prepared with new material each time. Some of us are even self destructive. So, Why want this life? Is there a point if in the end we can't handle all our failures? And if there is such failure, why try at all?

Recently Robin Williams had passed away by a self inflecting end. He and I suffer from depression, bipolar disorder, and the need to make others happy despite our own impending frail sadness. I suppose recently I've been considering my end game. Not to end my life, or to give up. But, the idea that, if Robin Williams couldn't take the world anymore-- Or rather, his life within this world, what chance do I have? He was a standard in life. A person who brought purposeful glow to those sad, afraid, or people committed to a finality of any given situation. I am not here to speak about Robin's death, or why he killed himself. I am here explaining that even the unknown, and known, have their battles.

I suppose I am saying; if you can, and are willing, keep on failing upward. We will have trails and tribulations. When we lose fellow soldiers of entertainment it is our job to remember what they gave to make it possible for us to fail within a business they helped nurture. When we are on stage, respect all those who had/have been on stage and those who wished they had strength to be up on stage. A fearlessness to break free of excuses and become apart of that magic. If you can't see yourself being successful, stop, breathe and rethink your plan. If you are not Networking, Marketing and Practicing; then you are standing still in your amazing, awesome and unique talent. Poetry alone is nothing if not in motion...

“No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change the world.” ~ Robin Williams
