Let It Go


After a big audition, what do you do? Do you evaluate and re-evaluate your performance, or beat yourself up over what you "could" or "should" have done better? Or do you walk away, confident that you did your best? As I grow as an actor, I find myself able to walk away from most auditions with the knowledge that I did the absolute best I could. For me, the thing that is comforting is that the experience was good, I prepared the way I needed to, and I performed what I prepared. You never know what the casting process is like on the other side and how decisions get made. It often has nothing to do with you, and more to do with the needs of the project or the budget or simply luck. Instead of agonizing, enjoy your work and it will always pay off!
