I was thinking about the kind of life i wanted and i got to a few things immedietly.

I want good friends.

I want a certain type of personality.

I want love.

And i want to start my acting career.

I was starting on the acting intention but then i realized...

If i become famous like i want, it seems like ill just be running from my problems of not having love or friends or that certain personality.

Those are all self mastery things.

Should i start with those more simple things before i go on to start making my career ?

Why not start the career AND work on yourself? I mean, it will be some time anyway, before you become famous...

If you master yourself, you have mastered the world.

After all, your thoughts create your reality.

You can't master the world. I'm part of the world and I am my own master. So therefore, not possible.

But it's never a bad idea to master oneself. However, it is a lifelong process, not actually a "goal."

So it probably would be best to learn as you go, like the rest of us, without delaying your career, necessarily. They are not mutually exclusive concepts.
