Turning Rejection into a Re-Route
November 16, 2020
In case you missed my IG Live with Amanda Ortega, we spoke on the topic of rejection as an actor, and ways to keep a positive outlook even when faced with rejection.
A quick re-cap:
- Think of rejection as a re-route, pointing you in the direction that you're supposed to go in.
-What is meant for you will not pass you by.
-When given a no, create your own yes.
-It is worth the risk of embarrassment to audition your talents.
-Live by the 48-hour rule: Allow yourself to feel all the feelings in those 48 hours following rejection: anger, hurt, frustration, sadness, etc. Then allow yourself to move on after sitting with those emotions.
-Treat yourself after an audition - you deserve it!
Rejection isn't easy, but it is always going to be there as a performer. Learn healthy ways to cope with it so that you can go out and book the jobs that were meant for you!
