Next Episode is already SO MUCH FUN !

My next episode is already so much fun. I am in a creative whirlwind and I attribute it to letting go.
Learning to let go is a lifetime study. We will always have situations arise that challenge and strengthen our ability to enjoy life NOW and let go of the outcome of our desires.

Letting go is an act of self love. If you really love something, enjoy it in the present moment and let go of the outcome. Say to yourself "I love that I don't have to worry about 'it' because it is all happening the way it needs to. Yay!!" See what happens when you can say that and believe it.

I am having fun with the journey to fulfill my desires because I realized that FUN is like a spiritual barometer of sorts. Think about it....FUN. What happens when you have FUN? You are living the lesson of letting go.

So, with a creative project such as my webseries, the only way to have what I want in life, is to have fun with it NOW. Yes, there are desires and goals with my webseries, but putting my attention and concern and worry on if it will happen, when it will happen, how it will happen, only BLOCKS and SLOWS the fulfillment of those goals and desires. Who wants that?

So, until my next episode is released, here is a little gem I hope you enjoy as much as I do. (hint: inspiration for next episode).

The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success for Actors

I have been reading "The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success for Parents" by Deepak Chopra. I like books that are for parents to share with their children, because I find the simplicity in describing things to kids is a great way for me to understand concepts on more of a fundamental level. As an actor, this helps me to stay on an enjoyable journey filled with love and appreciation for all opportunities, especially those auditions that don't lead to bookings or pilot pitches that don't lead to a production deal. If an artist can fully embrace these laws which I will list here, then they are always in touch with their creativity as opposed to the LACK of preceived success. An artisit who continues to embrace their unique art and always be creating more of that art, is ALWAYS and ALREADY "successful". After working and aspiring for acting success for several years, now, to me, "Success" has to mean JOY and LOVE or what am I doing? Is it the accolades and fame and monetary riches I am striving for OR the ability make my art and share it with the world in my unique way of communicating what I want to communicate?

After watching the documentary on the MAKING OF BORN TO RUN - which I will ALWAYS, from now on, recommend to every artists I meet and know and love - I am more grateful for the ability to create than worried about whether I "make it".

The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success (Think of your acting career, your pilot, book, film, music, etc......)
1. The Law of Pure Potentiality
simplified: Everything is possible
2. The Law of Giving
simplified: If you want to get something, give it.
3. The Law of Karma
simplified: When you make a choice, you change the future.
4. The Law of Least Effort
simplified: Don't say no - go with the flow.
5. The Law of Intention
simplified: Every time you wish or want, you plant a seed.
6. The Law of Detachment
simplified: Enjoy the journey
7. The Law of Dharma
simplified: You are here for a reason

Just create your vision in any way you can. We already have everything we need to create what we want. Next time you audition for a role you really love, just be grateful you had the oppty to inhabit it for a while. Whether or not you book it, you got to create the role in the way only you could have. What you offered in that audition was your gift of your art to those people in that room.

Choose to be creatively fulfilled and happy today.
