Hollywood Actors Share Their Success Secrets

It’s not a coincidence that you are watching this video. You’re on your way to something great.

" I'd rather get rejected than miss the audition." I feel that so heavy 😭

“Without training, they lacked Knowledge. Without knowledge, They lacked confidence. Without confidence, They lacked victory. - Julius Caesar -

it's definitely hard when people around you, constantly doubt you.

I'll be seeing you all on the red carpet soon

''Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and Something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.'' - Lance Armstrong -

I've always had a strong passion for acting/entertainment ever since I was younger I dreamt of being in the industry I'm gonna keep praying and working towards my goals no matter what

I've been acting and going to classes and auditions, doing plays ets for about 4 and half years now... I still haven't gotten a break but that's ok , I do it for the love for the craft and building characters.. I'll always be an actor even if theres no industry..you gotta just keep at it. All else is secondary.

''Champions aren't made in the ring, they are merely recognized there. You can map out a fight plan or a life plan, but when the action starts, it may not go the way you planned, and you're down to your reflexes, training your preparation, perseverance. That's where your roadwork shows. If you cheated on that in the dark of the morning, well, you're going to get found out now, under the bright lights.'' - Joe Frazier -

''Absorb what is useful, Discard what is not, Add what is uniquely your own.'' - Bruce Lee -

Despite the negative comments that may come, I hope people focus on the words of inspiration that come from people who have achieved their dreams. Call it whatever you want, but for the people who need to hear this Believe in yourself. You are your biggest advocate.

I wish I saw these types of videos at 15 when I was first thinking about acting.

I have been wanting to be a actress and model from a teenager. I am 62 I have worked for 32 years as a computer analyst. I love the idea of living someone else’s experience and being able to feel the difference Of who I really a.m. and who I can portray. I don’t want to leave this earth without knowing my full potential’s. Don’t know how I set all on this video and watch the full two hours. So inspiring

One of my friends has been in Hollywood pursuing acting since his early 20s; Today, he is in his 30s, living out of his van, and working for a company that builds retail spaces shelving and countertops. Hollywood, it's a tough business to break into if one doesn't make the right connections and being at the right place at the right time. Very entrepreneurial-type business.

Bill Duke 3:00 I’m coming back to this every time I get discouraged. This was my fav part of the whole video

Next year I will be 30. This year I realized that my life as it is, is incomplete. I never realized that my dreams- the ones I had from the very young age were still unfulfilled. I always loved to work with people, loved to make people smile and laugh. Regardless how many times I got disappointed or thrown down, I got back up. I survived, I am still here. I want to do this. I want to become an actor. I want to be great and remembered. I want to make people smile, cry and feel joy. Prepare yourself USA. I'm going to be a top actor and nothing will stop me.

"Let me tell you something you already know the world ain't all sunshine and rainbows It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently If you let it you, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life but it ain't about how hard you hit It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward how much you can take and keep moving forward that's how winning is done." - Rocky Balboa -

It’s nice to hear these stories... as an actor currently going through it.. I’ve haven’t booked in 2 years.. have had rejection after rejection...but I keep going, keep training, continue moving forward even when it’s tough...I know one day it will be worth it.

Getting injured during a stunt scene on Blue Bloods back in 2016 has really stunted the momentum that I was in. It resulted in Traumatic brain injury which sucks because my memorization skills have severely declined. I know that we are our own worst enemy but I am determined to get back to set SOON. I will not become complacent. I am grateful for this compilation of golden nuggets from fellow actors who never gave up. My hope is to see some of you reading this on a set and work work work. Who’s with me? Never ever give 🆙

I’m starting acting class next semester and I’m in love with acting I love being on camera. When I’m on camera I can be me, I can show the world who I am. I’m not shy because I love it. But I’m so insecure that people are gonna hate me.
