1. You could fall in love. In fact, if you're doing it right, you will. It is quite a common occurrence to see 2 actors go through an entire relationships worth of emotions in a matter of 20 minutes or less. This is part of the fun of the Meisner technique! You get to act on your emotions without thinking rationally about the future. You truly live every moment having no regrets about the past or worries about the future. Its like eating pasta before we realized carbs were evil. So come in and fall in love, kiss someone, scream at them till you're sad, cry it out and if after all of that he/she is still with you, it could be meant to be. Then you get to do it with someone else.
2. You need to be expressing creatively every day. Actors need to constantly be acting. You cannot walk in a room and dazzle a casting director with your dangerous compelling performance if you have not acted in front of other people for 2 weeks. So if you haven't done any acting today, here is an opportunity to work your muscle. You can't expect to stay strong without going to the gym, acting class is there for you to get a workout.
3. Begin to see greatness in other people. The basis of the Meisner Technique is listening- actively listening to the person across from you. No cell phone to look at, no text message to decipher, no photo to "like". You simple listen and react to another living breathing human being. The more you do that, the more connected you become to humanity and the more fulfilled you will feel inside of yourself. If you still need to find yourself, it just may happen while your attention is focused on another person.
