Monday Myth Debunkers: Always Expect Feedback

ย 
We thought this might be a good myth to debunk…โ 
โ 
You know whatโ€™s hard?โ 
โ 
Making sacrifices for your dream, working really hard at it and not getting the external validation you crave. โ 
โ 
We get it. โ 
โ 
We really, truly do. โ 
โ 
Because (as we hope youโ€™ve gathered by now), weโ€™re human too. Just like you!โ 
โ 
We like external validation too!โ 
โ

โ 
But itโ€™s important to start moving about your career without the expectation that you will always get the validation and feedback you are hoping for.โ 
โ 
You act because you love it.โ 
โ 
We cast because we love it. โ 
โ 
If we gave each and every actor audition feedback, an email reply to a self pitch or another favor paid, our mental health would not be great. โ 
โ 
We always do what we can, when we can. โ 
โ

โ 
Got a callback? Thatโ€™s great feedback!โ 
โ 
Pinned? FANTASTIC feedback!โ 
โ 
Being brought back to the same office over and over again? AMAZING feedback!!โ 
โ 
Had a great audition but didnโ€™t book it? Trust yourself. It WAS great. YOU were great. โ 
โ 
Trust yourself. Trust yourself. Trust yourself. โ

โ 
Work hard. โ 
โ 
Be kind.โ 
โ 
Do your best. โ 
โ 
And let the work speak for itself.โ
