Jean Claude Van Dam said that when he was ten years old he decided he was going to be a great martial arts movie star. Then he added he’s a fifty year old man living a little kid’s fantasy.
Loved Madonna back in the day, Garth Brooks and Gaga now. They all decided to become rich and famous, planned for it and executed. It’s said Brooks used to walk around Oklahoma State University with his folder of ordered plans. I’m sure there at 10,000 serious actors and singers saying they want to be famous, but these people had concrete plans and followed through.
Sharon Stone did much the same. Saw an interview where she said she was the plain girl in HS that no one would dance with. She decided she would become beautiful and went for it, balls out. I’ve seen men and women do this IRL and it’s quite a thing to behold.
Anyway, I admire people that can stay focused on such a difficult goal like world fame and get it.

I just feel like it’s worth mentioning that there are probably hundreds of others who did the same amount if planning and failed. There is only so much that an individual can do to determine their own fate.
