The Great Acting Blog: “Ensure Our Own Well Being By Supporting Others”

As actors, we often need support and encouragement, whether that comes from friends and family or books or even blogposts, this assistance plays an important role in assisting our thinking and keeping our emotional life in tact.

There are others however, people within our orbit, including those on the periphery of it, who may need support too. This is especially true of those just starting out and whose belief in themselves is fragile. Perhaps they performed well or made good work. It’s important that they receive recognition in these moments, their effort should be acknowledged because it may give them the confidence to keep on going. Remember those times when someone went out of their way to tell you how much they enjoyed your work – it creates a massive boost. We must be alive to the prospect that others need encouragement too, and take action when the opportunity presents itself.

Our focus cannot always be on ourselves, sometimes it must be on others, and, while it is, we may find our own well being starts to take care of itself.
