You just have to take control of your own performance.

You just can't control your art in the future.

That's all you can do as an actor - take the best thing available.

I want to do theatre and film and direct my own things and develop.

The lesson I learned is that sometimes the task you have at hand needs all of your concentration and focus.

It's such an overused phrase: 'to be part of the conversation.' But it's true. It is nice to be part of the conversation - just be sure they are talking about you in the right way.
