Self Sabotage - An Actor's Constant Battle
Have you ever stopped what you were doing because you weren't seeing the results right away? Maybe you are trying to self market and no one is writing you back, so you start telling yourself "this is pointless, nobody responds anyways"... Or maybe you feel like your agent isn't getting you enough auditions, so you automatically put the blame on the fact that you're not getting enough opportunities - which means you can't go any further at the moment... Or maybe it is something else you are thinking that is holding you back from doing what you need to do for your career to move forward.
Self Sabotage is a gremlin that comes from fear. It's common and so many actors struggle with it in one form or another. Not everyone's version is the same, but it has the same effect - IT HOLDS YOU BACK FROM ACHIEVING YOUR GOALS.
Tune into today's episode as we snap out of the self sabotage monster once and for all!

Booked It - Now What's Next On Set?
You booked the gig? Congrats my friend! You should be super proud of yourself. You did the work and they chose YOU to play the role. That's HUGE!!! But What happens next?
If you are feeling some pre-acting jitters and your mind is going bonkers thinking about memorizing your lines and if you will be able to live up to everyone's expectations who booked you for this production, you're not alone.
9 times out of 10, us actors will start to second guess our skills and talents and it can cause a lot of stress before the production even begins. This is where you have to reassure yourself that you got this and they chose YOU and BELIEVE IN YOU to bring the character to life!
Let's dive into this episode of Shannon The Slayer, where we talk about what's next when you find out you're booked and confirmed to be on set to film.

Chase Your Happy - Do It Because You Love It
Trophies are nice and all, but are they really worth it? As a former body builder, I would work hard to sculpt my body year round and chase a trophy because I thought it would make me feel more accomplished. When in all honesty, this chase did more harm than good for my mentality because my heart wasn't in it..
Trying to chase something that you think will make you feel better will never give you satisfaction. Sure it might give you a temporary high of achieving one of your goals, but if it isn't something you truly love to do, then chances are that it will hurt you more than anything.
No matter where you are on your journey, I encourage you to ask yourself if it's truly what you love to do. If you would be happy just showing up and giving it your all even if you get nothing in return, then you know you're heading in the right direction. But if you don't, then maybe it's time to stop the chase and switch your gears to find your true happy!

Believe It To See It - Keep Going Even When You Can't See The Outcome
If you can't see something, does it mean it isn't possible? You might feel down when you aren't booking or you haven't been seeing any results after putting so much time and effort into your career as an actor. But I am here to tell you to keep going my friend. Start to BELIEVE it, then you will see it. Because even though you aren't seeing anything right now, doesn't mean that it's not within reach. Keep going even when you can't see the end results, because if you give up now then you'll never see your dreams come to fruition.

Hiding Behind The Mask - Stop Hiding Your True Colors Actors
Actors love masks. They are fun and can help us get into character. Sometimes they are even necessary - depending on the role. However, sometimes you can get stuck hiding behind that mask if you're not careful.
But when do we need to take the mask off and let our own true colors shine? Take a deep look inside yourself and take a minute to ask if you are trying to please the casting directors so much that you are losing yourself in the process?

What Am I Doing Wrong - Not Booking The Role
What are you doing wrong as an actor that is preventing you from booking the role? Chances are you're doing NOTHING wrong! If you are taking classes, doing the work and giving it your all, chances are you are doing everything right. The only thing that needs to change is your way of thinking.
Embrace every opportunity that comes your way and look for the good that comes along with it. You need to do the work, but you also have to believe that things will happen when they are meant to as an actor. Focus on the facts, continue to do your best work and keep going in the direction of your dreams. There is nothing wrong with you and you are not missing anything my friend.
