Okay, as I’ve mentioned before I’m trying to get out on the town more often; both professionally and personally. This past weekend my friend Angel invited me out two nights in a row, both in Hollywood. I think I did okay…I guess…I hope. I absolutely suck at the networking thing, but the second night I actually gave out my card a few times.
I don’t know exactly what it is that I’m uncomfortable about, but it’s been this way since the very beginning of my career. I have a fear of rejection. Since I was fully aware of it back then I’ve been able to over compensate for it in other ways. Funny enough, none of the fear has anything to do with acting or auditioning; I don’t take any of that stuff personally. I don’t get rejected for acting jobs; the powers that be just hire someone else…frequently. I wonder if I’d further along if I was really good at “working a room”.
