Keeping Yourself In Check With A Team

May 18th, 2009 by Alan Yu

I was reading about this event happening in the weekend that was acting and film related where it looks like it was a seminar combined with a monthly group event consisting of mentors and coaches. Basically, the point is to force you to make specific goals while trying to hold you accountable in doing them.

I have always found that with the majority of aspiring actors they tend to have a lot of big goals and dreams, but in the end they don’t really push themselves to actually do anything. Having a group of people keeping each other in check can be a great thing I suppose.

Simply reading about other people’s challenges and solutions can be good too as it is almost like running a business and taking practices that helps another company become successful. The only thing about this event I was thinking about was the cost. Is it really wise to spend money as a way to meet more people in this fashion?

Yes and no depending on how you look at it. One thing that runs into my mind is it could end up like those pay to get discovered events. On the flip side it could end up just being a great convention with a bunch of like minded people. Plus I am attending that weekly acting workshop still which is factoring in on whether or not I could even commit to this in general.
