Surrender!

Hi there dearest Actors!
If you are like me, you probably don't feel right unless you are being productive. Yesterday I was reminded of the value of Surrender, because sometimes there is just nothing we can do but that. I was reminded that its ok to give oneself permission to Surrender and have an afternoon off!

I have discovered Dr Deepak Chopra's Lectures, which I listen to daily and they have had a profound impact on me. On his recommendation I have also decided to start a course in Transcendental Meditation. I strongly recommend it to you too, not only so that you can fulfil your dream to be an Actor, but for health, vitality, relationships, longevity and Creativity!

Let me know if you are already on that path, I would love to know your experience!
Always here to help, wishing you and your families a Happy Easter!

Acting is a Full Time Job!

Dearest Aspiring and Working Actors hello!
Today I want to share my thoughts with you about being a Working Actor. I would like you to consider acting as a full time job, just like any other. With this sort of perception, whether we are engaged in a contract or not it doesn't matter. Think about rehearsing with friends, making your own films or putting on your own productions, classes, keeping up your craft and skills, learning new ones, maintaining your brand and you have a full time job! Meanwhile, that is why I recommend working SMART NOT HARD in THE SECRET OF YOUR SUCCESS AS AN ACTOR, just $9.95 available for Instant Download. We don't want to run ourselves into the ground earning a living to pay for our career do we? 


Here is some more info for you from My Acting Career too! 
Always here to help,
Love Tula

Dr Deepak Chopra, George Kapiniaris and more!

Dearest Aspiring and Working Actors,
I have been listening to Dr Deepak Chopra's lectures and reading his material. If you have read my E-Book, THE SECRET OF YOUR SUCCESS AS AN ACTOR, check out Dr Chopra's lectures to fast track the use of Your Secret Weapon. I find listening to his lectures daily very inspiring and the best thing is, you don't have to make any effort, just having the awareness is enough! 
Meanwhile, here is an interview from Industry professional George Kapiniaris I totally agree with, for you. I find working as Actor, Writer, Producer very rewarding. There is nothing like creating your work and your Reality!
Always here to help,
Tula

FEATURE INTERVIEW
Making Your Own Work: George Kapiniaris

How has working as a writer, producer and director shaped the way you view acting, and how has being an actor influenced the way you view/do your jobs as writer, director and producer?

"Really it's the same gig. All these headings fall into the same ballpark. Sometimes as an actor you have to direct yourself while you're learning the lines the day before a shoot, be a writer when you're reading over the script before the show begins, and also be a kind of producer when you're deciding that your character will definitely not wear blue in the restaurant scene. When you're working for another company's production you leave these jobs to the experts, but I think knowing what's going on helps."

Writers, producers, directors and performers don't always see eye to eye on creative and practical levels and while that's not always a good thing, it can keep ideas, budgets, etc. in check. When you're wearing several or all of these hats, who (if anyone) keeps you in check and how?

"You definitely have to keep yourself in check. Follow your own instincts. It helps, though, to be in some kind of producer partnership with someone you trust, someone you know really well. It's the type of working relationship I have with Simon Palomares. We've been working together for over twenty years and we're still going strong. Not a lot has to be said for us to put something in motion and that's because we know each other so well…"

Tula’s unique e-book gives an interesting insight to her own experience with specific examples from film, TV theatre and giving practical advice for success, but most importantly dealing with issues so that our aspiring actors and working actors have a strong sense of self that does not leave them vulnerable when they succeed in the industry.
“Life is not a rehearsal; we only get one chance to make it the best we can, or the worst…” Tula Tzoras.

For the first time a struggling working actor who has finally achieved the wisdom she needed 20 years ago, faces the confronting task of sharing her experience in the industry and her personal battles with anxiety and chronic fatigue syndrome. From her pitfalls she is able to guide aspiring and working actors with infallible tips for success including a secret weapon that will give actors the edge they need to create their ideal career and life as actors.

Let me tell you it pays to be both an Actor and Producer. I was gobsmacked when I found out what Producers are paid compared to Actors!
So go ahead and Create and be Merry!
