Leave an Inspiring Great Legacy

ENTERTAINMENT

“The greatest legacy one can pass on to one’s children and

grandchildren is not money or any other material things accumulated in
one’s life, but rather a legacy of character and faith.”

Being a stand up comedian is a very tough job. Standing in front of

people is never easy, but standing in front of people who judge everything
you say and expect to laugh every few seconds is much harder. They are
different from other artistic vocational groups especially between a creator
and a performer because comedians create and perform his/her own act.
Many people want to become a comedian, but very few suceed or have the
endurance to overcome failures.

Why it is hard to be a comedian? Because you might be considered

a great comedian today, but nothing guarantees that the audience will love
you tomorrow. Also they do not have agents to arrange and manage their
career. For them, reputation is key. If you are a good comedian club
managers will spread the word about you to other managers, who will then
invite you to perform in their clubs.

Great comedians will know to adjust and succeed almost

everywhere, but it takes time and experience. They encounter many
problems and struggles upon their way to success but they make sure that
it cannot affect their good reputation and great legacy. Comedians are very
professional, they were more open to experiences and also they inspire and
help people overcome their problems, but how? By simply making them
happy and sharing their inspiring stories of their lives.

What are we? What legacy will we leave? Your words and actions
become the building blocks of your legacy. Knowing what’s important,
what drives you and how you want to be remembered creates tremendous
clarity in how you should live your life. So, always remember, “Leave an
inspiring great legacy.”
