An Actor must make sure that their professional life doesn’t take over their personal life. For instance, it’s easy to spend an entire week learning lines or otherwise preparing for a role to the exclusion of their other day-to-day needs until their meeting or audition has happened. They may also spend considerable energy and time waiting for that phone call from their Agent or Manager about a potential callback or offer. What may seem like a professional lull is actually a period of hard work with auditions, classes, and other activities to help improve an Actor’s chances of booking a gig.
