Stage Buzz: Do You Trust Your Intution?

Greetings from Chicago! It feels so good to be back in the Windy City.

After traveling on business for 5 of the last 14 weeks, I had actually cancelled this trip because I just didn’t have the desire, or the energy, to pack another suitcase and get on another airplane.

However, for the last two weeks, I haven’t been able to shake the feeling that I needed to come home, so I was able to get a fabulous price on a last minute plane ticket and here I am in Chicago. The best part of this trip is that it provided me with the opportunity to help my parents celebrate their Wedding Anniversary, and it enabled me to be with my father on Father’s Day, which doesn’t happen too often

19^th June, Chicago.

As I mentioned in my opening note above, even after making the decision to cancel my trip to Chicago two weeks before 19^th June, I couldn’t shake the feeling that I needed to come home. So, I trusted my intuition; booked a ticket and hopped on plane.

Why did I need to make this trip? I have no idea. I just knew that I needed to be here, so here I am.

One of the biggest challenges we often face is the idea of trusting our intuition on something; especially when the “facts” tell us something different. However, as Bill Gates (Founder and Chairman of Microsoft) said, “Often you have to rely on your own intuition.”

So what is your intuition telling you today? I know it’s telling you something!

Maybe it’s to submit to the Casting Director of a movie you just saw and loved. Maybe it’s to pick up a trade you never read. Maybe it’s to try out a new acting class; do a private session with a new teacher; or hire a career coach, such as myself. Maybe it’s to step out of a theatre company that’s not working for you. Or, maybe it’s telling you to look for a new agent.

If you will take a few minutes to stop what you’re doing, take a deep breath and still your mind, your intuition will make itself known to you.

After all, if the third richest man in the world does it, maybe you should try it sometime!
