Pauleen Luna: 'Never stop chasing your dream'

 
At 25 years old, she already has a list of awards, shows and movies under her belt.

Actress-host Pauleen Luna is proud and grateful for what she has already achieved and acknowledges one of the many things that helped her get to where she is: Hard work.

“Hard work talaga gets you somewhere,” she said.

In an interview in Walang Tulugan, she advised young people to set their eyes on their goals.

“Never stop chasing your dream. You may not be given (exactly what you want) right away pero kapag pinagtrabahuhan mo ang isang bagay, eventually, makukuha mo rin ‘yung gusto mong makuha,” she added.

Even after many years in the industry that she loves, she still faces challenges. One of them is time management. To make sure that she takes care of herself despite her many engagements, she finds ample time to rest.

“As much as I can, naghahanap talaga ako ng time na makatulog at makapahinga kasi kung hindi, over fatigue and abot,” she noted.

For the other challenges that a celebrity faces, Pauleen finds strength in her family.

“Well, I’m very blessed kasi maganda ‘yung support group ko eh. Buo yung pamilya ko and they always keep me grounded. They always make me realize na ‘o, trabaho lang ‘yan. Hindi ‘yan ang buhay,’” she shared.

Pauleen recognizes that the showbiz industry is not everything and it can be taken away from her anytime. With that, she makes sure she treasures every moment and gives her best in every project and performance.

“Showbiz is very temporary so what’s nice about it is napapangalagaan ko siya talaga na parang trabaho ko siya, na parang it’s an office job that I have to take care (of)... Inaalagaan ko po talaga siya,” she declared.
