Your question and your sub-question are two different questions.
What does it take to be an actor and singer in this world? Acting and singing.
Successful? That is a Horse of a Different Color.
Talent
Drive
A willingness to work hard
A thick skin
A "can do!" spirit
A willingness to learn
A love of humiliation
A Never Say Die Attitude
and finally........
A Rich Daddy/Wife/Vaguely Unsettling Old Broad / Old Queen"Sponsor"
Leave your pride at the door.

You should know how to commit on it.. Love the craft you are into it..
you should also have a great discipline.. Keep yourself always fit in body & health.. If you're a singer, you should know how to take care of your voice so much..
Practice makes it perfect so it's normal to uplift your talent every now & then by trainings, workshops..
Don't stress yourself.. stay calm, be natural..
