“There's nothing I can control about how people see me as a person, but I can control how they think of me as an actor”

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, we can't change what people think about who we are personally. People form their own opinions based on their experiences and views. For example, someone might think you are shy because you don’t talk much at a party. That’s their way of seeing you, and you can’t easily change it. However, you can definitely influence what people think of your work or skills. If you’re an actor, you can work hard to play your roles well and show your talent. When people see you do a great job in movies or plays, they will admire you for your acting skills, even if they don’t know much about you as a person. This idea can be applied in any job or hobby. Focus on doing the best you can in your work, studies, or activities. People might still have different opinions about your personality, but they will respect you for what you do well. Concentrating on what you can control helps you grow and succeed.
