Keep On Standing

Some days, rejection in this business is a little tougher to take than usual.  For whatever reason, whether it's because the show or the role or the choreographer means something personally to me, or because of something that happens (or didn't happen) in the room, or because I get so close to something and miss it and feel frustrated because I don't understand why and don't understand what I'm supposed to do differently next time, or because of all of those things combined, every once in a while it takes a bit more muscle for me to brush off a rejection.  For me, today was one of those days.

I have a solution for those days to keep from letting it keep me down.  It's the same solution I've had since I was a kid.  I put on music and dance it out.  And there's no character better for this than Rocky.  So today I'm sharing my pick-myself-up-from-the-most-painful-rejection song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIKDxzz2wwY
