"You have to decide that this is for me"

"You know I think when things get down, you have to look at, you know, where you’re going. You know I think for me what I found in that moment is that this was for me. You know I get asked a lot of times by, you know, younger actors and they go how did you make it? And I think, you know, this is not only with acting. I think this is with any pursuit of something you love, any pursuit of a dream, you have to decide that this is for me. And you can’t give yourself an option out. So basically what I decided on that day, you know, when I was, you know, at Griffith Park is that I’m going to continue. And that’s not to say that you have a plan on how things are going to go and that everything becomes okay that next day or the minute after you make that decision. It’s just that you make a decision. You don’t let the decision make you. You make the decision to just stay in the game. And that’s the essentially what I did. It wasn’t like some grand thing. I just made a decision I wasn’t going to quit. And how I found that was just by saying that. I’m not going to quit. And that was it. It was just that simple. I’m not going to quit. And I’m glad that I didn’t." - Tory Kittles, actor

Yes. This is basically my philosophy. Especially when people try to bring you down and say your dreams aren't worth it or you'll never make it, I'm just like "not with that attitude"  :P
