I should open a Pet Psychic shop with my Basset Hound. When you come for a reading, he'll sniff your shoe, and chew it a bit... or bark.. maybe he lays down. When they ask me what it all means, I'll say "I dunno.. I'm not the psychic.. He is. That'll be 200$."

I've just read his book "Stranger than fanfiction" and it was amazing! Very fun, suddenly touching, and very in time for me, a young adult. I had a guess that author is an actor himself, but it took me completely off guard then someone said his name outside of book writing context. I didn't realised I already knew him (well, watched him in glee) before I read the book

With wolves we took a wild animal and bred them into our loyal faithful companions. With cats we didn't change anything and they are still the same smart wild animals. We just shrunk them down leaving them dependent on us for food and shelter. Cats are still pissed off about that.

You can be & do anything & anyone you want. (That is a weird sentence. Don't read it the wrong way.) It's just very hard work & persistance, plus a whole lot of luck & being recognized and supported by the right people. So to sum it up, it probably is: Talent, Hard Work/Practice, Persistence, Luck, Contacts/People who believe in You. I forgot the most important point, though, which is PASSION. If you don't have passion for what you're doing, you most likely won't have the passion to work hard enough for it - be persistant - be lucky - make powerful contacts - & meet the right people who believe in your talent & SEE your PASSION. ( +++Disclaimer+++ It doesn't necessarily have to happen in this particular order - If at all.+++Disclaimer+++ ) (So the mantra of the first letters could be something like: "PTPPLP". Or if you don't like the letter "P" so much, maybe: "PTWPLC". Still two "P's", but apparently you need them to be successful. Print it out, hang it up to motivate yourself, like Rachel does in "glee". You're here, so you must know the series "glee". :D ) That's what I learned, after analyzing the steps of how people became successful, while maintaining the passion & love of what they're doing. Your ambition can not be to become either "wealthy", nor "cool". Your worst ambition, though, could be, to become "famous". If you're doing it for the fame, you're doing it for the absolutely worst reason you possibly can. And you most likely wont succeed, because people will recognize your false ambition & figuratively smell your desperation. (I mean that obvious, & pungent smell of desperation to become "famous", no matter what.) The one thing those "fame-seeking" people need to know is: Fame is a lie, it's not real. Fame is a two-sided coin/blade. It is both, heaven AND hell. It's something most people want & wish for, but famous people don't want so much anymore & wish to escape, even just for one day. (Going to the supermarket, unrecognized, like a "normal" person, is what you'd do on that day, for example. These little things, that can seem unpleasant & not something you'd strive for, but you'd really miss, once you'd be famous. Fame gives, but also takes a lot of things from you, that are impossible to get back.) 'Kay, that's it. And don't forget: "PTPPLP"/"PTWPLC". Good luck. Believe me - You can do it, too. - If you want to. (What is Your Passion?) (Sorry for my improvable English Grammar, I'm german, so English is not my native language/mother tongue. Same thing, right? But, that's what I'm working on right now. Anyhoo, have a good day/night. Goodbye. :) )
