It's not how much you practice but whether you're quick to fix the errors that lead to mastery. Power practice must be deliberate practice. This is not a minor change in how we practice. It's an overhaul. The difference between effective and ineffective practice means the difference between mediocrity and mastery. If you don't practice deliberately, you might as well not practice at all. What do I mean by deliberate practice? Deliberate practice means to constantly focus on one's weaknesses rather than repeating and focusing on one's strengths. Hide

About having a role on Search for Tomorrow (1951): I thought I'd do a show that nobody would see, and I'd be able to do theater. I ended up working on the soap 15 hours a day. Hide

I didn't have a clue who Craig was until I [got the role]. I'm not familiar with the other work. I got his history on paper. It was like a Bible, and it was all bad! I was like, "Didn't this guy have any friends?" I try to remember who is related to whom. Oakdale is a very incestuous town. It's all, "Who's your brother, who's you sister, who's your cousin, who's your lover?" Hide

Yeah, it's a lot of work. It's the most difficult genre there is for an actor. I find it awesome. It's amazing that an hour show can be done in a day. I still don't know how it gets done. I'm just trying to pedal my bike as fast as I can to keep up. The bar is so high on this show. The talent is so good and the writing's good, the crew is fantastic. It's fast and furious, and sink or swim. Hide

My character is. I'm learning at tremendous speed. It's definitely a way of life. It's amazing how fast you can learn when you have a seven-time world champion like Billy Blanks teaching you. I'm learning different programs, as well as street brawling and handling a sword. Hide

It's incredibly difficult to practice service, gratitude and joy in moments of terror and a feeling of unworthiness. We must believe that we're enough. Because when we work from a place of "I'm enough," then we stop defending, kicking and screaming and start listening. Hide
