"Accept given circumstances as real"

The actors textbooks state

Bring you to the role as you would feel

If the characters life’s your fate

II

Control contain and regulate

Your emotions best and worst

In humor love and even hate

Use your impulses first

III

Concentrations sometimes evades

Even the biggest stars

And sometimes the focus fades

And your performance mars

IV

But keep the faith against all foes

And to yourself be true

Keep energy up be on your toes

And don’t forget be you

V

The road to perfection is rough and hard

So strive and stick right to it

Remember if the job was easy

Everyone could do it
