Staying Happy in La-La Land

1. Say what you mean.
2. Do what you say.
3. Always assume the shortest distance between two points is a straight line.
4. Don't talk shop in your free time.
5. Don't do something you would be ashamed of.

I think one of the biggest concerns about moving to Los Angeles is that once you work in Hollywood, you're in danger of "letting the business change you", "turning bad" and worst of all "going Hollywood". I admit, sure I see some of this happening but it isn't true for everybody here. I've met some wonderfully sincere and successful people, and I choose to focus on them rather than the latter.

Here's some of the good advice I've picked up from the bits and pieces of conversations I've had. Everyone sees a newbie in Hollywood and feels it's their duty to preserve their innocence.
LOL!

Staying true to oneself is always important, especially here.
