Work Smarter Not Harder!

In my blog dated August, 21st,  I talk about applying a new strategy to work.  Of course I'm particularly speaking about Acting.  But, honestly, my advice can be applied to any career.

You can't just let your agent do all the work.  As an actor you need to get out there and find work and meet people.  Most Actors first begin to submit on casting sites; Actors Access, LA Casting, Frontier, Backstage,  The People Network.  That is what I was doing, submitting day in and day out to these casting sites.  It took time and the return was minimal.

 My New Strategy is to meet with Casting Directors and attend their workshops.  Along the way I've been privileged to meet also Writers and Producers.  Thus far I've submitted my first script to a well known  production company (I'll go in detail on another blog),  and I'll be shooting an episode for the web series, "Love and Consequences".  Today I followed through with writing a letter recommended to me, to the head of a production company in New York.  We share the same passion in that we enjoy working in both film and theatre and I look forward to working with them.  I'm happy to share with you that I've also  just received a recognition of my talents from City of Los Angeles and a commendation from La Comision de Fiestas Patrias Ecuatorianas. For my contribution during the Ecuadorian Festival.

Thus far my strategy is working, though it's still in its early stages.

Now it's your turn.  Try implementing a new strategy toward your goals.  You will know that it's working when you start experiencing results.

You are always welcome to share with me your strategy!

Sincerely,

JC
