As a young actor I wanted to please everyone. I thought I could be all things to all people. Not only was it incredibly exhausting but impossible.
When you try to be a crowd pleaser you end up compromising your credibility and sense of integrity. You also lose touch with what is important to you because you spend all your time and resources trying to appeal to other people.
Instead, focus your energy on crafting the message you want to share with the world. Once you do that you won't be easily discouraged by the people who will inevitably not support your vision. You'll be too busy creating community with those who do, while strengthening and refining your own unique voice.
