Great to have you on board Paul!

Paul, the biggest thing I can tell you is this: treat acting like a daily practice, not a distant goal. Work your craft every single day: monologues, duologues, scene work, workshops, whatever stretches you. At the same time, start creating your own material. Build characters that excite you, write short scenes, sketches, even mini-episodes. The more you create, the more confident and employable you become. Keep reaching out to people in the industry, not just when you need something, but with the mindset of how you can contribute. Show up to events, meet new people, and build real relationships consistently. If you commit to this throughout 2026 and keep a daily journal of your wins, losses and lessons, you’ll already be miles ahead of most actors who wait for their agent to make things happen. You don’t need permission. Start now. Go get it. And good luck.
