Kevin Spacey - Nothing You Can't Achieve (Inspiring Speech)

In this clip from Inside the Actor's Studio, Kevin Spacey gives us an inspiring speech on what drives talent and how to get to the ultimate prize.

Transcript:


- How can we, help us appreciate this early experience, these lean years, these very difficult years leading up to the ultimate prize?

- There is no prize out there. The only prize is this one, and what you feel, and what you want to accomplish, and if you can as you start out, these what could be lean years, or could be fat years, I feel that I very often watch a lot young people sort of meander around without any idea about why they're doing what they're doing. I mean, to want, and to be ambitious, and to want to be successful is not enough, that's just desire. To know what you want, to understand why you're doing it, to dedicate every breath in your body to achieve. If you feel you have something to give, if you feel that your particular talent is worth developing, is worth caring for, then there's nothing you can't achieve. You're gonna grow up with your colleagues, you're gonna watch them have success and watch them have failure, and you're gonna watch how they deal with it, and they can be as much a teacher for you as anybody here, or anyone who's privileged enough to come here and speak to you.

Even though we’re told we shouldn’t care what other people think of us, deep down, many of us still do. Wanting to be accepted and loved is natural, and it can be devastating to hear someone talk badly about us behind our backs.

However, hearing someone say nice things about us when they don’t think we’re listening can be incredibly uplifting. One mother recognizes that, which is why she routinely "forgets" to hang up on her daughter-in-law.
