In this excerpt from one of our weekly Live Zoom calls with the 10,000 NOs Insiders Community, we discuss the idea of being present and how there is simply nowhere else to be. The past is gone; the future is our imagination; the only thing we have is right now. Many of us enjoy activities like surfing or riding rollercoasters, not realizing that the real thrill is that they force us to be present. So it’s in those moments that we are most fully alive. For many actors, on some subconscious level, that might be the reason we've chosen this career - as painful as it can sometimes be, it inherently forces us to be present.     Monday Morsels are the short-form companion to our Friday Interviews of 10,000 NOs... brief riffs on the show's central topics & themes as food for thought to chew on throughout your week. It is not the critic who counts. If you’ve been knocked down... get up, dust yourself off, and get back in the arena. If you want to give back, share this with someone who could use it and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen, so more people find this show and benefit from these conversations.
