Coaching for Acting vs for Life is most often the same. Here are a few thoughts that work for both:

• Think in terms of what is “core” and what is “essential.” It works in Life as well as for Acting.

• When ego’s out of the way, you don’t have to show or prove anything. Again, great for Acting and Living.

• How much do you want it? “Quantify” for Acting and for your Life.

• The difference with working on Acting or your life: It’s easier to look at the scene than what you’re actually creating in your own life.

• Tough times warrant tough love. Find your way through it.

• Don’t worry about the fall. Just get up and keep moving. Then figure it out while on your feet. (Yes, I’ve done it lots of times.)

• Brand whatever you’ve got. It’s like a dog marking their territory. Once branded, share it!
