How to Become a Comedian, Part 1

I'd like to share a bit of my experience with standup comedy.  Having done standup for a dozen years, I've watched a lot of people try to make it work and fail.  And I have a secret for you.  It's the number one reason why people succeed in standup.  In anything.  You won't believe it.  You're going to say that it's too simple.  That there's got to be some other magic ingredient… talent, or charisma…  but the truth is that the number one ingredient to success in comedy is PERSISTENCE with the INTENTION TO SUCCEED.  If you don't persist with absolute determination, you will have a very difficult time getting past the challenges that come up, and they are numerous.
