In everything you say state intent.

We go from ..... Business is awful
to ......It's very quiet now
to ...I need more work
to ...I will contact 5 people today and tell them I am available for VO work.

Do this in EVERYTHING, not just work, it will change your life forever.

Move from useless and more often than not negative information to statements of intent.

Wake up. Be awesome. Help someone else be awesome. Hang out with other awesome and amazing people. Laugh a lot. Celebrate the day. Repeat.

HINT: the first cold call of the day is the hardest.

After you swallow that first dose of indifference and (sometimes) irritation,
the rest aren't so bad Laugh

{BTW that's THEIR indifference and irritation, not yours} cool

And remember, even if you ARE the worst voiceoverist ever , that's still no excuse for not making that next call
