One of the benefits Ryan Lock is noticing about doing so much coaching is he is seeing this so clearly with his clients.  These mindset traps stop you having what you want as you get in your own way. This is Marysia Trembecka’s with Ryan James Lock twelfth coaching session podcast, just press the arrow above or  below are some of the highlights (this is not a full transcript) Three mindset traps Mindset Trap 1        The fear of what other people think of you if you put yourself out there or take action. Mindset Trap 2       Who The Hell Am I Syndrome? Mindset trap 3          Delusion – Thinking about it and expecting it to happen. Mindset Trap One  – The fear of what other people think of you if you put yourself out there or take action. Often the first real block of getting more clients is people worry about what others will think if they indeed step up and do a Youtube video, a blog or work towards goals. You will come up against people in whatever field you are in. As Marysia is an actress she has got used to being rejected as you don’t always fit the brief or have the right coloring for the family unit. Rejection is not always personal. You can get pencilled (so you have to block out the time in your diary) before you are penned and then still be rejected. Ryan suggests thinking of yourself as a brand, it makes it less personal. If you are worried what people think, really do acknowledge  that it is not personal, there is often a bigger picture we can’t see. You can worry about what people think, or you can take action on your goals, you can’t do both Allowing what other people think of you to stop you taking action is a real trap. Often as an entrepreneur or creative your family and friends often don’t get your dreams. Marysia listens to lots of other peoples’ podcasts in the gym for inspiration, for encouragement, she finds it’s like being in a mastermind group and helps block the other negative voices out. (There are some great podcast suggestions at the end of this post.) Ryan has recently coached someone into getting published on a front page of a website who was worried about her ‘real writer’ friends and what they would think to see her as that is not her real focus. Ryan has suggested that if her friends got weird she needs to change her friends. Having a coach or a mastermind group is important to support your dreams and remind you that you are not alone. Marysia was in a ‘mastermind’ group with other actors but they were all very different casting. She still passes on jobs for others  although if it was a casting for her type I would not. However having people in very different or similar but different  fields can be super useful to brainstorm, inspire Collaborate not competet post here Mindset Trap 2       Who The Hell Am I Syndrome? Every one suffers from lack of confidence, it can be very subtle. I won’t go that for that as I probably won’t get it I won’t go to that audition as it is out of my reach I won’t keep in touch with that contact  because they are out of my league. So it manifests itself as not believing you deserve what you want. It is very erosive, even if you want something if you have this tape playing in your head of ‘who the hell am I?’  or a la the Spice Girls ‘Who (oooh ooh) Do You Think You Are?‘ you just won’t take action for what you want. The Kardashians, reality TV stars earming $25 million for eating lunch, as they so into self promotion. Ryan had a client critiscising Madonna’s hard self promotion and Ryan said actually that is an amazing thing. So how to overcome this? Look at areas in your life where you suffering Are you not going for that promotion, talk, seminar, audition? Look at what you are not doing and own the fact that the only reason you are staying stuck is because of that belief.

This week we look at how to deal with having negative creatives and people around me. Here are some of the highlights of his advice for moving forward this week (this is not a full transcript) Ryan’s work is based on the belief that the way you think about yourself and your work has a huge impact on your success levels. I talk about being surrounded by negative artists. I was in a few casting classes last week and the negativity that come from other actors talking constantly about how hard it is is really depressing. I found their low life state made me angry and annoyed. I wanted to say to people ‘Come on, strive harder’ Ryan wanted to know when I heard all this negativity, how did I deal and react? I repeated how the casting directors say that they get thousands of CV’s for a TV job and only call three to four people in . (Note this is in the UK, in the USA they may call hundreds in for each role). Hence if you do get the call for an audition you have a very good chance of booking the job as they think you can do the job which is why you are being called in. The other actors kept telling bad and hard luck stories. Ryan talks about when people say ‘ I am just being honest or negative’ he always think ‘No, you are being negative’, there will always be positive and negative sides to every experience and it is about choosing what side you chose to focus on. He thinks it is dangerous to hang around people who are negative, it can overinfluence you. He always suggest to listen to those people who have the results you want. It is about saying ‘That might be true for him but not necessarily for you’. I mention Ken Collard and his primary focus is ‘I can do this, I can make this happen, I can make a living in this industry’. I am a great believer in doing, making contacts, networking gracefully. Ken Collard Podcast Ryan says he loves the fact that I say ‘I refuse to sit there and be a measly actor’, sitting there complaining and telling yourself it is going to be hard’ you make it hard for yourself. He mentions the book E-squared, where she talks how your brain chooses what to think, if things contradicts the way you think about your life it then ignores them. Marianne Williamson, ‘The universe is hugely abundant, you might be sitting next to your would be life partner in a cafe but if you are too busy thinking how life is hard then you may not notice that he is smiling at you‘. The same applies for work. Life does not have to be difficult and hard but can be brilliant. Ryan likes coaching me as I already seem to know to keep positive and how my mind influences my life. However I mention the DHL nightmare today where I have had to sit in all day (after waiting in all day yesterday and popping out for 20 mins where I then missed them) and had wait and stay in for a delivery all day from 8am. I rang at 5pm asking where is the delivery given, they won’t give me even a morning or afternoon time, just office hours, it is now 5pm. I could have done more work but had friends pop round as I couldn’t go out, I have not got to the gym and feel useless and as if I have wasted my day. I have been very busy for months and am about to hit a quiet period. Ryan asks me how I am feeling about coming up to a quiet period and do I have a sense of guilt? I mention all the work I have been doing but not had that many casting directors in. I refer back to when Ryan said when it comes to work and free work you have to find ways to quantify its worth. Podcast on saying no to free work I keep hearing people aka casting directors say you have to be in something to be seen, and new work is better. However I then get well it needs to be a certain fringe venues, ideally a new play, a great director[...] Actors, Casting, Podcast Marysia Trembecka Actress/Blogger/Writer & Performer of her own shows no no Why you must define who you are, then find people to challenge you respectfully’ Dan Horrigan, playwright & director https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/10/14/why-you-must-define-who-you-are-then-find-people-to-challenge-you-respectfully-dan-horrigan-playwright-director/ https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/10/14/why-you-must-define-who-you-are-then-find-people-to-challenge-you-respectfully-dan-horrigan-playwright-director/#respond Mon, 14 Oct 2013 13:00:54 +0000 http://loveyourcreativity.com/?p=1858 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/10/14/why-you-must-define-who-you-are-then-find-people-to-challenge-you-respectfully-dan-horrigan-playwright-director/feed/ 0 ‘Next!’: the secretive world of casting directors, Guardian interview https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/05/22/next-the-secretive-world-of-casting-directors-guardian-interview/ https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/05/22/next-the-secretive-world-of-casting-directors-guardian-interview/#respond Wed, 22 May 2013 10:07:58 +0000 http://loveyourcreativity.com/?p=901 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/05/22/next-the-secretive-world-of-casting-directors-guardian-interview/feed/ 0 Acting business: 10 Tips from a casting director & an agent https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/05/01/10-tips-from-a-casting-director-agent-a-working-actor/ https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/05/01/10-tips-from-a-casting-director-agent-a-working-actor/#comments Wed, 01 May 2013 20:47:39 +0000 http://loveyourcreativity.com/?p=472 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/05/01/10-tips-from-a-casting-director-agent-a-working-actor/feed/ 7 RTE interview with advice from casting director Brendan McNamara https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/04/17/rte-interview-with-advice-from-casting-director-brendan-mcnamara/ https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/04/17/rte-interview-with-advice-from-casting-director-brendan-mcnamara/#respond Wed, 17 Apr 2013 14:35:27 +0000 http://loveyourcreativity.com/?p=301 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/04/17/rte-interview-with-advice-from-casting-director-brendan-mcnamara/feed/ 0
