How to deal with rejection
May 16, 2025The most challenging thing for an actor to deal with is rejection and to be constantly going for auditions.
If the focus is on getting the audition, you’re going to find the career of an actor very hard.
But if the focus is on, I go into the audition, I’ve already been cast, and I’m just going to play with this and experience this for myself and see what I can learn and then walk away and get on with your life.
So that every audition, every self tape is seen as your job and also that you are going to just enjoy this part of it, this moment of it and then let it go and move on.
You actually have to practice that so after a self tape after an audition, you need to have something on the other side of it, that actually feeds your system enjoyment, pleasure, ease you have to work at that like this is a job to work at that.
It’s one of the most difficult careers in the world from the point of view of the body because the body wants consistency in order to feel like it can trust.
So your daily rituals are very important.
