Alice thought to herself "I don't see how he can ever finish, if he doesn't begin."

Last night I had the pleasure of going to see Avengers: Age of Ultron early with a friend of mine and one of the Executive Producers gave a little speech before the movie began.  Her speech was humorous but also very inspiring.  She told us all to not only follow our dreams but always do what we're passionate about.  Because if you're passionate about something and you're not doing it, then a part of you is dying.  She went on to say that too many people use excuses why they can't do what they're passionate about right now and how they will one day...

For me, if I'm not creating, I'm lost.  If I don't have a script to dive into and a character to fill then I'm nothing.  The main reason I'm making my own web series and films is because it's so hard to be seen and to get a foot in the door out here.  That and I'm very impatient, I've said that before.  So instead of waiting and working hard to get that role that will make all the difference, I'm working smarter and giving myself the projects that will make me thrive!  

Don't get me wrong, this is not a brag fest.  It hit me hard when she said last night that people make excuses and talk about how "one day" they'll make it.  But these same people are doing nothing to make their dreams happen!  I see these people everywhere!  One day I'll be famous, one day I'll be rich, one day I'll get out of debt, one day I'll be skinny...but what are these people doing TODAY to change anything?  Most of them nothing.  And it's frustrating when you know that they deserve better and really want them to live up to their full potential. 

So I love this quote because you can never finish if you don't begin.  And I will no longer say that "one day I'll make it" hoping that something will come along because I am making those things come along.  And I WILL make it.  So if this blog can do anything for you today, I really hope it inspires you to make a choice to stop procrastinating when it comes to your passions and dreams.  Change doesn't happen overnight but it also doesn't happen without a first step.  So whatever it is that you're putting off or waiting for some miracle to bring to you, start it now!  Go begin writing that script, start putting money into a savings account, go walk for an hour, do anything you can but start it now.  No one else is going to make your dreams happen for you and you won't get there if you don't start now.

The difference between a dreamer and a visionary is action.

Love you!
