Heaven Hi!!!

The only reason I’ve had success is because I’ve had access to people who’ve coached me in all of the places where I’ve needed help. I never achieved success alone. I’ve been fortunate to have a group of great mentors in my life, including Henry Miller, William Inge, and Irwin Shaw among others. From my coaches, I learned how to overcome adversity, to be ecstatic, and possessed about my goals and the processes it takes to reach them, and what it takes on a daily basis to reach them.

A coach gives you a necessary third eye to see things in your career, your life, and your craft that you cannot see for yourself. If you’re inside the painting, you are bound to notice a lot fewer details of it, than if you are observing it from the outside. A coach can point out your strengths and weaknesses while continuously motivating you toward your goals.

An important thing to remember during all of these processes is that there are no such things as failures. There are only outcomes – either positive or negative depending on what your goals are. Few people have negative outcomes and stay down. Remember that your outcomes are directly related to the steps you take towards realizing your goals and wishes. Face it; if you put carrots in the juicer, you’re getting carrot juice, not orange, grapefruit, or tomato juice. Your actions and decisions are directly responsible for your outcomes. “The Acting For Real” book aims to lend you the power of an experienced (and hopefully somewhat entertaining) coach to make them positive outcomes!

Be Bop!
