I feel grateful for that understanding because it’s something a lot of people never realize.īaseball-in some sense-is about being a performer, in that you’re entertaining people on a level that’s exciting for them to watch. When I realized my dream of baseball wasn’t going to happen, I understood whatever I chose to dedicate my life to was going to be something I loved to do. It’s about the focus, the repetitions and really dedicating yourself in a way that is uncommon. It didn’t dawn on me until much later in life that it takes so much more than just being good at something to translate talent into success, and the key is discipline. I thought that just having talent, a love for the game and an ability to play was all it would take. You might be lucky, but you won’t be successful. What I didn’t have at that point in my life was an understanding of how important discipline is, and how without it, you’re not going to be successful at anything.

The dream was to play professional baseball, and I had a level of talent that made that dream something potentially possible. I never thought about acting for a living.

When we connect by phone, the 20-year Los Angeles veteran-who can next be seen in the upcoming CBS movie A Christmas Proposal and as a mentor in the HBO Max series The Real Magic Mike!-opens up about his path to becoming an actor, revealing how a anti-drug kid until eventually found his way to weed first by selling-and then smoking- cannabis as an adult. “We have other kids, and when a new one comes, we just hunker down and lay low for as long as possible.” His newborn baby is sleeping on top of him, so staying at home is something he’d be doing anyway regardless of the current health climate. During the lockdown months, actor and Criminal Minds star Adam Rodriguez has lost track of time.
