The Path to Fame The Path to Fame (What do you think of it?) Understand that there is more than one way to become famous. It's not just about being rich or beautiful, there are endless ways to gain fame. Here are just a few suggestions: – Write a best-selling novel. – Perform a popular song. – Become an actor. – Invent something useful. – Become a model. – Start a successful business. – Do something heroic. – Excel at professional sports. – Marry someone already famous. – Become a prominent politician. http://www.wikihow.com/Become-Famous
11
Tips (Do you agree or disagree?) Don't wait for a dream. Work for it. Participate in lots of events. Be in a school play or sing in a choir, it doesn't matter how you start. Most famous people start like that anyway. Highlight your best talent or quality. Find ways to show the world what you've got! Being famous isn't only nation wide. It is much easier to become "well known" in your community. Your fame might even spread... Have a genuine conviction that you deserve to be famous. Envisage benefits to the society from your fame and try to highlight and project them in turn. Do not be deterred by resistance to your efforts. Be brave and assertive. If you want to be an actor or actress find a theater near you and audition for plays; you could become famous! Try to contact famous people in an attempt to get them interested in your area of expertise. Do not badger them however, or continue to communicate with them if they do not respond. Contact your local newspapers, and interest them in doing an interview about you.
