maybe I will never be satisfied, but I will be Better...
I watch movies and television the way I am sure chefs eat. I would imagine that it would be hard for a world-class chef to simply order from a menu without looking at all of the selections. I imagine it would be even harder to enjoy the lamb without calculating just how much Rosemary he would have seasoned the lamb with. This is how I watch movies, with a critical eye. As a critic should.
Joe tells me I don't watch nearly enough movies. Geoff tells me I am not nearly dedicated enough. But Adonis said it best.
"When you watch yourself, why aren't you as critical of you as you are of them? Are you afraid to admit what you would say about your performance if it was someone else? Don't be afraid of it, embrace that."
Today I came to the realization that maybe I will never be satisfied, but I will be better. I watched the footage of the show and I was in disbelief. I didn't believe me, others may have, but I didn't. Not nearly enough. I know me, so that is not too harsh. The best part is being able to admit it. It raises the bar. I was unsatisfied.
But it was better than the first time, which WAS good. Just wait...

I never intended to question your dedication. I was suggesting that, if acting be your primary focus, your strategy ought to be more exacting.
