At the media conference for the Kapuso star on November 29, GMA Network artist Kelvin Miranda highlighted how he balances his career.
Miranda said that he chooses to enjoy his journey in showbiz.
“Sa totoo lang, ito malat ako ngayon, gawa ng nag-aaral ako ng script, naghahanda, nagpre-prepare. Nakakapagod siya sa totoo lang, pero hindi ko kasi tinitignan ‘yung journey, hindi ko agad tinitignan ‘yung magiging resulta eh. Pinag-aralan ko sa sarili ko na enjoyin na lang ‘yung journey kasi, sa mga napagdaanan ko, talagang nakaka-drain eh.”
He also noted the significance of having a work-life balance as one of GMA Network’s busiest young stars.
“So kailangan ko pa rin humanap ng paraan para ma-enjoy ko pa rin ‘yung ginagawa ko at hindi ako magsawa at hindi ulit ako panghinaan ng loob. Kasi once na marating ko nanaman ‘yun, mahirap nanaman bumalik. Sobrang maapektuhan nanaman ako. Hangga’t maari, ginagawan ko ng paraan.
“So either, nagtra-training ako, nagbo-boxing, nagmua-muay thai, minsan nagjo-jogging, nakikinig lang ng music, minsan nanonood lang ng movies, para bumalanse lang na hindi lang puro ‘yung nakikita ko na ito, ito ganyan.”
He also revealed how he remains grounded as a person when he’s at home with his friends and family.
“So parang kapag wala naman ako sa work, ito lang, normal lang ako, normal lang ako na nasa bahay. Minsan kasama ‘yung mga kaibigan, para bumalanse kasi kung iisipin ko pa ‘yung work, ‘yung work, kahit sino naman siguro, magiging exhausted.”
He then reiterated how finding other hobbies outside of showbiz helps him handle his career.
“So kailangan talaga, humanap ka talaga ng paraan, either tumutog ka ng instruments, kahit walang patutunguhan, basta marinig mo lang ‘yung mga nota sa tenga mo. Therapeutic siya eh, sobra. Katulad nito, mga tugtog na gusto kong pakinggan, comforting songs, favorite songs, mag-sulat ng tula.”
Miranda‘s starred in various Kapuso projects such as The Lost Recipe, Mano Po Legacy: Her Big Boss, and the sitcom Tols.
He also released his first solo single Slow Dance, in 2021, and Sumayaw, in 2022, under GMA Music.
Sumayaw, composed by Nhiko Sabiniano and produced by Paulo Agudelo, is available on all digital streaming platforms and includes a performance video from Miranda via GMA Music’s YouTube Channel.
