Episode 229: Aging and the Actor

Ken Rea's Outstanding Actor Workshop Well, this week, I turn another year older. In the 30-plus years, I've been in this industry, I've watched it change dramatically. Age is wisdom Age is an advantage Aging is beautiful Aging is a privilege "The walls of your comfort zone are lovingly decorated with your lifelong collection of favorite excuses." -Jen Sincero I was using age as an excuse. When you see what you're weak at, you don't want to shy away from it. You want to lean into it. You want to practice it more. You want to get stronger and better and master it. I've learned so much through getting older. They are looking for everything. They just want real. Start saying to yourself. "Why not me? Why not now?" What is stopping me? What is stopping me because if it's age or any other lifelong collection of excuses, then keep in mind you're the one who's making those excuses, and you can just as easily choose to overcome them.
