Silence. There are times it's the only thing I want and I wonder how I'll ever go back to the world of noise and distraction.

As someone who makes his living as an actor, my routine varies almost every day.

I love the idea of creation and creativity.

I try and keep busy with something, but I also give myself permission to be busy with something that is creative and rewarding, not just the errands to the dry cleaner.

It's in the silence that I'm most able to hear the tiny voices that tell me I'm not good enough, smart enough, or cool enough. I try to hear them for what they are: my own creations. Sitting with them, letting them speak, hearing them out, and giving them back the silence that I'm now sitting in has shown me that, quite often, they shut up.

Improvise. Write your own damn story.

Silence. There are times it's the only thing I want and I wonder how I'll ever go back to the world of noise and distraction.
