Don't Daydream! Show them what you've got!

As stated in the previous post, You should be sure of your talent or work. Is it corect and is headed for the right audience! If you’re a writer for example, did you target your story correctly? It doesn’t matter how well you have written your romance novel, if the agent only deals with historical text, you’re not going to get your book sold by him and you’re wasting his time and yours. Research your field of interest and make sure you have the right person. Also if you have ever seen American Idol, you have seen talented acts, and then there were the acts that got booed off the stage. You knew the judges were going to all say “No” before they did. There was a good reason for this. The acts weren’t that good, or they were just out right bad. If you keep getting told “No” it’s just possible that you might need some work on what you do. There are less painful ways to find out. One thing you can do is seek the advice of qualified people you trust. “Don’t fall into the traps!” If you’re that good as a Writer, Model, Dancer or whatever your chosen field they will pay your way, put you up, have you sign on the dotted line or whatever it takes. One thing is certain; they will not let you walk away without making sure you are in some way represented by them! Yes you love your boyfriend, your mother, your best friend but your guidance counselor, your pastor, your scout master might be better as a choice to get an honest response. You want to find someone who is not emotionally invested in you who can give you an answer without feeling they are betraying you. There is nothing wrong with following your dreams. Just be sure you’re not day dreaming while you’re doing it. Next entry, "Hightech Warfare, is it really the way of the Future?

"No doesn't necessarily mean no!"

It happens all the time! We hear the word "No". It's even one of the first words we learn as children. No! You can't have any candy. You'll spoil your dinner. However no doesn't always mean no! As was mentioned in the previous post I am a writer.
As such one of the first things you get when you contact literary agents is the literary equivalency of the word "No". No we are not interested in your literary work! I received a rejection letter just the other day! If you can't take rejection there are definitely certain professions you shouldn't go into. Writing, Modeling, Dancing and Sales are just a few of the fields you will definitely hear the word "No".

The funny thing is as any good dancer will tell you, you can go to one cattle call( a term used when dancers gather for auditions) and be rejected because your too tall or short and go to the next and be chosen because you are the perfect size.
Yes skill and talent are all important factors, but there are other factors that can play into the mix that you have little or no control over. The thing to remember is to keep a watchful eye out for honest criticism (when it’s available) and to be sure of your product, talent, ability or whatever applies to the situation. In the next segment find out how you are a lot like the judges on American Idol!

Not necessarily but, the attempt of this blog is to provide you with a possible alternate you haven't thought of.The newest answer isn't always the best answer. Example: The Electric Car- Many people think that this is a technology of the future. The one of the first mass marketed electric cars was the "Baker Electric". Also in the seventies the "Citicar" and the "Commutacar " were the hope for a cleaner world. (Pictured here!)
