Research shows that greatness is available to everyone
. Heres how to stand out in your feature film casting auditions.
* Dedicated practice is the secret: Its not enough to work hard. Your practice must be dedicated. Most people dont want to force themselves to break through to new levels of achievement. The extra mile is the one that hurts the most. Thats why excellence and greatness are so raremost people dont want to work that hard. Tiger Woods went through a drought a few years ago. He stopped winning tournaments on the professional tour. What was wrong? He was changing his swing. Already the No. 1 golfer in the world, Tiger had analyzed his swing and identified how to make it better. He was willing to do whatever it took to make himself better, even if that meant having to endure the embarrassment of missing a cut. Tiger perfected his new swing, and he has been unstoppable ever since.
* Dont play the blame game: Few people want to accept full responsibility for their lives. Successful people always react to failure in the same way. They dont blame their failures on external circumstances. They never say, If I had only gotten a break, things might have been different. The way you react to previous feature film casting auditions determines the outcome of future auditions. Instead of blaming things on circumstances you cant control, always ask yourself what you could have done differently to achieve a different outcome. Analyze it today and learn what you can, then forget about it and move forward. Dont listen to the voice that says youre not talented enough, not attractive enough, or not young enough.
We have the power to become the persons we want to be. Be prepared to go the extra mile. Youll stand out in all your feature film casting auditions.
