    digging in and really discovering what YOU do best

    celebrating the specifics that cause you to truly shine

    dropping the need to compare yourself to other auditioners

    showing them what you can do, instead of showing them what you can't do

    and 

    being brave enough to know that your only job in an audition is to give them YOUR best and tell a story, you have no control over whether or not you book the gig.
