Everything I need to Know I learned in Acting Class

I found this list from a journal entry back in 1999:

You need to have an objective and put all you've got into achieving it.
Learn how to listen.
Don't upstage.
Live in the moment.
Less is more.
Invent nothing, deny nothing.
It's never too late in the run to make a new discovery.
You can't repeat a great moment.
Plan all you want, the spontaneous is more exciting.
If you make a mistake, deal with it the best you can and move on.
You can't plan for the unexpected.
The journey is always more important than the destination.
Learn how to take a complement.
You need to find your own definition of "making it".
