In my worst moments, I try to think about loving instead of hating. Creation versus destruction, know what I’m sayin’?

Hate Moments Thinking Worst
I think that ultimately I just have to be myself. You know, I don’t do anything that outlandish anyway.

Knows Outlandish Thinking
I know it sounds earnest, but I do really feel in my bones that acting is just a small part of the equation when you are making a movie. The director really is in charge. Actors are as important or unimportant as the rest of the people around them.

I’m not good at keeping secrets. If I’m entrusted with a secret from a friend, I can do that because I’m a good friend, but I don’t like having secrets, it makes me nervous.

Make yourself useful, not just on a day to day basis, but as a lifetime thing.

Lifetime
I worked regularly from very early on, and some of it was probably a bit premature.

Bits Premature Probably
I used to struggle a lot with dwelling on how the day at work was, and I would dwell on my performance. Now, I’m like, “Well, that’s over and done with, and I can’t control the outcome, so move on.” I just remember that it’s entertainment I am making.

Dwelling Moving Struggle
I’ve really turned a corner recently in terms of not taking work too seriously, so it is much easier for me to not take my work home.
