It’s a great feeling, isn’t it? When you book a gig. It’s like a great weight is lifted off your shoulders. Like you can breathe again. Like everything, all the sacrifices, the long hours in countless classes, the money spent, the frustration and tears, was all worth it.

Because now, you’re an employed Actor. It feels good. It feels right.

We don’t always get to feel that feeling. We usually feel the exact opposite. So when it does come around, it’s a thing to be celebrated.

Be happy about it. Treat yourself. Take yourself out to get a special dinner, or a walk on by the beach. Announce it on all your Social Media channels, (but make sure not to name the project unless you have permission).

Take your moment, breathe in deep and rejoice. You earned your spot.

Congratulations!
