For the longest time I have had so much belief and confidence in myself, which as an actor you need, because the entertainment industry is incredible competitive, brutal, and unpredictable just when you start to think you know what’s going on.
I am fortunate to have a lot of love in my life. I love my family, I love my dog, I love my close friends, and I absolutely love my incredible girlfriend.
The best thing about the world today is that everyone is connected and you can go online and quickly find people all over the world doing incredible things.
To me love is passionate, it is honest, and it is selfless. Love is willing to completely give up your life for someone, to make sacrifices and put them first.
Getting up early and setting myself daily targets, even outside of acting, keeps me active and motivated in general and thus happier, which I hope translates into my personality and my work.
As an actor in-between jobs, it can be hard to stay motivated when you feel like you future is always in someone else’s hands. You are always waiting for someone to look at you and say “YES.”
I guess at it’s very core love is connection that just makes so much sense you wonder how you used to live before you were lucky enough to experience it.
You can’t truly love someone if you also love yourself, just as you can’t love someone if you are not honest with them and they with you – otherwise it’s just infatuation and desire.
Successful people inspire me, and I don’t mean just in their career but people who have amazing families, or who have made a difference, or followed their dreams.
Medical science in particular will get exponentially better, especially once computers will be powerful enough to digitally simulate entire human brains, meaning medical experiments that would normally take years can be digitally run taking only hours.
My career goals generally remain the same, but my short time goals constantly change either because I’ve reached them all or they no longer fit into my current strategy.
I am very lucky to live in California, which is not only filled with very entrepreneurial people who don’t wait around for success, but who make their own.
