For the the first time in my career I could play the part with a clear role and no judgements in my head. The monkey in my head that called me a fraude disappeared. It was my best performance ever, according to many people'. Others allways see the greatness in us. Yet we often refuse to see it in ourselve. We stay with our thoughts in the head of others. We do what we think that they think what's the best for us. Who choose his study because he was advised to do so by the schoolteacher or parents? How can we be the needle in the compass of our life?
