It's amazing how 8 out of 10 people I talk to, who are doing something they don't enjoy, believe their purpose is in the arts and entertainment. I'm usually not surprised by that discovery. Most young people believe entertainment, music precisely, is all fun and games. Who wouldn't want to be in a profession where
you supposedly party all night, sleep all day and make huge amounts of money? Such a fairy tale!
Well, I have a spoiler for you. It takes hard work, sleepless nights, frustration, uncertainty, disappointments and, name it, to make it in the entertainment industry. the same principles that guide success in any profession are the same principles that guide success in the entertainment industry. it takes a minimum of 3 years to become a c-list celebrity in the entertainment industry and that is if you're extremely talented, well funded and strategically promoted.
So, yeah. Are you sure this is what you're made for? Do you have what it takes to face the realities listed above? If you are, please let us know how you came to this discovery and what makes you so sure so others can learn. You might even surprise yourself. :)
