How do I enter the entertainment industry through hard work and talent?

I want to become a director of some sort of entertainment media but I often get the sense that to even get an opportunity you have to be well connected to powerful or influential people. I know talent isn't always the most important factor to getting noticed, but, is there a way to become a leader in the entertainment industry through self made opportunities? If so, what are the most effective steps to take?

Should I apply for college or enter the workforce?

I’ve been a bit anxious about the college and career path that I want to take after high school. I initially wanted to be an editor but I’m still on the fence about it. I’m also not sure if I want to go to college or try to enter the work field immediately after graduation. College applications are approaching fast and I’m not sure exactly what to do at this point. Where should I go from here? Note: this question was anonymously submitted by a learner

Have you ever regretted becoming an author?

I have always wanted to be an author, but I am aware of how many writers give their all into their book and for whatever reason, are unable to get a publishing company to pick it up. Or else it flopped in sales and ended up not making enough money to make it worth printing, much less living comfortably off of.
