What Does it Mean to Be an Actor?

Realize that acting is hard. I’m not trying to be discouraging here, just realistic. Being on an elite level in anything is difficult. Look at the NBA, how hard is it to play for them? Hard. Very hard. Look at professional soccer. What about being a concert pianist? Or a ballerina? All these take training, practice, and determination. It’s the same thing with acting. So just be prepared, roll up your sleeves and do whatever it takes to get there.
