Actors choose verbs to play in scenes.
They might ‘press’ another character. Or they might ‘interrogate’ them.
It occurs to me that we unwittingly have verbs in life too. The words we choose dictate how we show up in the world- just like an actor in a scene. Actors are very intentional about it, but in normal life we aren’t.
Are you ‘getting through’ the day or ‘dancing through’ it?
Are you going to the office to ‘slog it out’ or are you going to ‘play’?
There’s power in this kind of intention. Don’t leave it to the actors; make your life a masterpiece of a play, written daily by you.
