If the goal is doing good stuff and working with your friends ... if you’re doing that then you’re succeeding.

Decide what your currency is early. Let go of what you will never have. People who do this are happier and sexier.

Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life.

If you do a scene and you really like a character in it or a premise in it to write it down and to work on it so that you can have five or six characters that you can pull out in an audition.

You never know what's around the corner unless you peek. Hold someone's hand while you do it. You will feel less scared.

I love saying 'yes' and I love saying 'please.' Saying 'yes' doesn't mean I don't know how to say no, and saying 'please' doesn't mean I am waiting for permission. 'Yes please' sounds powerful and concise. It's a response and a request. It is not about being a good girl; it is about being a real woman.

That is the motto women should constantly repeat over and over again. 'Good for her! Not for me.'
