A Zoom chat and commonalities anddiscoveries. Basketball. Acting. Courage. Auditions. Risk-taking. Rejection.Kindness. And a half-century age disparity. I never felt it. Actually, in twoZooms, I mentioned to Quinn that I thought he was fifty (not twenty-something).A huge compliment, I carefully explained. How worldly, grounded, disciplined.Hugely anticipated interview. To the legions of Gen Z, millennials, and beyond,an amazing spokesperson. You all know I often say the movie Casablanca changedmy life, so Quinn’s acting journey intrigues and bonds. He is entertaining,ebullient, genuine, caring, and brilliant. I love his thought, “courage overcomfort.” His journey now is taking him from the stage to film and TV. And whenI asked his favorite film. “Jurassic Park.” Can you imagine his reaction when Imentioned going on a fossil dig next week with a dinosaur DNA researcher?  Watch the interview. In the meantime, hereare some words and thoughts. Going on stage for the first time was terrifying.Being in sales helps with rejection. Stoicism. It’s wisdom from a hundred yearsago. Not much is in our control. Do you think courage is something you are bornwith or build? “Build it!” Everybody is worth listening to. A favorite word,hope. Afraid to take that leap. Just do it. I get these spiritual visions.Quinn is accepting a Best Acting Award in Los Angeles. I knew him when. A greatinterview.”  Calvin🎙️ 801+ Interviews& Videos📺 9,550+Subscribers — and growing👉 PleaseSubscribe:https://www.youtube.com/c/ConversationswithCalvinWetheSpecIEsGLOBAL Reach. Earth Life.
