How To Handle Rejection As An Actor

Raise your hand if you’re an actor who’s had to face rejection… Raise your hand if you’re a person who’s had to face rejection… OK everyone better have their hands up because rejection is simply a part of life, but especially as an actor.

This is such an important topic that I just had to create a GuruTips video on this, because it’s a lesson that every actor needs to learn and understand. Learn how to face rejection the right way by clicking below!

I hoped this helped actors! Remember- it’s not the end of the world. There are a million reasons why you may not have gotten the role or why the agent passed on you, and most of them have absolutely nothing to do with your performance.
