"But if you have stuff that's the self starting stuff on the side, when you are in those periods of no work from the outside, you're not bummed about it. So your energy doesn't go down. Because I had Mickey Brasch, I wasn't bummed about being done with those other jobs."

Today’s episode was ripped directly from one of our 10,000 NOs Working Actors Community weekly zooms where Matt addresses the challenges that face our members. Today, we discuss how when you create your own work and have agency over your own art, it brings your power back. You, as a creative vessel, is now longer waiting for someone to give you permission to express yourself. You don't need permission. You are the permission. You can go and create your own art now!

"I'm talking about theories and mindsets, and that's awesome, but what about tactical? How do you translate that to stuff that's in the real world that we all have to do? When you have a baby screaming on your arms on a Saturday and you have to do an audition tape. When you have a song in your head, but you're doing your day job and you can't write the song down and you can't riff and then it's gone by the time you go to sit down with it. Where's the advice for that?"

Today’s episode was ripped directly from one of our 10,000 NOs Working Actors Community weekly zooms where Matt addresses the challenges that face our members. Today, we discuss how to organize and set up ourselves for success when we have creative ideas. It may not always be as exciting to put systems in place, but it's necessary in order to execute our creative ideas without losing spontaneity. This then allows us, as artists and humans, to reach an audience in order to impact or serve the world in some way.

"It's better to share the good than to not celebrate the win because I don't want to make it seem like this is really great; It really is great. It's kind of nice. That's the reward of all the shit you put up with to get to that."

Today’s episode was ripped directly from one of our 10,000 NOs Working Actors Community weekly zooms where Matt addresses the challenges that face our members. Today, we discuss how our ego can get in the way of us celebrating ourselves. We must fall in love with the process instead of the results. The more we fall in love the process the better the results get. It's OK to celebrate that you've shown up and put your art, yourself, your passions, etc out there. You've got this!
