About this product

Product Information

Why a book for ACTORS on the subject of HAPPINESS?Being generally happy and fulfilled is t only something everyone deserves, it is absolutely essential to the success and longevity of an actor's career. Actors face a unique set of challenges, and matter what level a career is at, uncertainty, rejection, judgment and disappointment are all part of being an actor. Happiness is often placed in the hands of what happens 'out there'-booking the jobs, getting good reviews, making that money- yet the truth is, circumstances are only 10% responsible for our happiness. 50% is due to our genetics and, most significantly, 40% is in our own hands. It turns out, happiness is an inside job. An award-winning book, How to be a Happy Actor in a Challenging Business: A Guide to Thriving Through it All takes you on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment. You will learn the activities that have been scientifically proven to boost happiness levels, and discover some of the world's most powerful spiritual kwledge on the subject. There are practical, transformational steps that will help you navigate the worlds of stage, film, and television with a foundation of self-esteem and personal power. You will hear stories of Hollywood actors as they have adopted these keys and moved toward happier, more fulfilling lives, and you will be let in on some powerful inside perspectives from four of our top industry professionals-Emmy-winning producer/director David Nutter, Oscar-winning actress Christine Lahti, Emmy-winning casting director Mark Teschner, and Artios-winning casting director/acting coach Risa Bramon Garcia.

As actors, the challenges we are conditioned to view as mountaius magically diminish with each passing chapter, until we are on a pleasant journey through friendly, manageable terrain. If 'could've', 'would've', 'should've's mean anything, this book tells you that you still can. Read this book and fire your therapist!- Alex Manette, actor ( The Butler, We Need To Talk About Kevin, Shame, 2 Days In New York, Law & Order and The West Wing. ) Be happy with yourself.
