10 out of 10

 Little bit of background. I have spent the last while -I don't know how long exactly- making an effort to stop caring about the people who don't care about me and seeing the difference of when people say they care and when they actually do. And many people believe they care when they say it but they don't. It's not their fault, they just don't. So I've been finding people who will A) help me get where I'm going OR B) just actually want to be around me. And I've found during my uest many people who are focused, goal driven and positive. Again most people say they are positive but they didn't actually understand positive and negative. Positive is being an actual uplifting force in a person's life, giving to that person and helping that person obtain the things they want in life.
So on to the meat of this note. I've been looking at people's status' (stati?) over the past while and every time I do I notice huge trends. There are just major differences in the stati (status'?) of people I spend my time with now and people I spent my time with in different periods of my life. And it's just a level of positivity. For instance the status' of people I spend my time with now are about how awesome a day of shooting was! Or how great seeing someone was. Or asking for help on an upcoming project. While the statuses (?, no) of people I used to spend my time with and even up until a few days ago I maybe tried to put an effort into are things like how they want a new job. Or how they can't get any theatre or film work. Or how rude or stupid people are. Or just as simple as being bored or tired.
I recently read a book in which one of the messages was 10s actract 10s. If your personality is a 5 you will actract people who are lower then 5. And you yourself will be attracted to 7s or 8s who in turn will be attracted to 9s and 10s. I thought about this in terms of pictures and sites like "Hot or Not" where you rate pictures and how people get rated 1-10 on looks and every high schooler knows that to date someone on the high end you have to be on the high end. It's just the way physical attraction works. Well for the first time I clearly understand that it also how personalities work. It is really just that simple. To attract positive, helpful, forward moving people, stop complaining, stop being negative, STOP MAKING EXCUSES! And become a positive, helpful, forward moving person.
If you want to create film and have people ask you to be part of projects then start doing it yourself and start asking people to be part of projects! If you want to fill your life with talkitive people, talk to talkitive people and be talkitive. You want to be on stage and get gigs, find a stage and make a gig. You want a good boyfriend, be a good girlfriend. These are so simple but so hard to understand.
When I start to rant like that it just means i am passionate about it. I want each and every person I know to find happiness and it hurts me when I see old flames complain about their bad boyfriends or lack of boyfriend. It hurts me to see old friends complain they have nothing to do or life isn't going well for them. It hurts me just to see people I barily know complain they don't like the job they are in. Because I want to help andI want to show everyone that to live a better life, you just have to live a better life. Unfortunately the saddest part is that each person has to find this out for themselves, my struggles are not their struggles and vica versa. I cannot put the effort and positivity into people who continue to shrug off the offers and love. Each person needs to find their own path, I just encourage people to look at the path they are on right now, look at where they want that path to go, see where it's headed and ask themselves "Is that where I want to go? Are the things I spend my time on moving me toward what I want? Are the people I spend my time with helping me get there?"
