Candace Cameron Bure opened up to John Crist about how she has been able to blaze her own career path. The actress, writer and podcast host mentioned that with her work, she is doing what she wants and saying what she wants. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear how Candace has been able to do this in an industry that typically puts up many barriers.
Conventional wisdom has been that you must do this or that or say this or that to succeed in Hollywood. Basically, if you want to be in the game, you have to play by the rules. To be honest, that is how it is in nearly every job and profession. We have always done things a certain way, so that is how you must do it, too.
Some people refuse to play by someone else’s rules. Simply because that’s the way we have always done things isn’t the greatest reason or argument for continuing to do things a particular way, especially if it’s not working. Candace is one of those people who has gone against the grain, choosing to do and say things in Hollywood that have gone against the norm.
In a clip posted on YouTube, Candace told John how she has been able to do this throughout her career. She says what she wants and puts out the movies and television shows she wants.
“I’ve always kind of been that way, and we’ve always,” she said. “I say ‘we.’ I’ve been with the same business partners for almost 30 years. I’m a loyalist at heart and love my team and my people. But we’ve just kind of forged a path when a lot of people were like, ‘Nope, you can’t do that. We can’t. You can’t.’ And we’ll say, ‘Well, we’ll find a way.’”
She added that her determination and perseverance have allowed her to “stay true to the things that I’ve wanted to and been willing to say no and find a different route to do it.”
Galatians 6:9 “Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up.”
