It’s not enough to be confident. You have to portray confidence.
A big part of rehearsal is finding and eliminating weak spots. That’s essential. But in performance, you can’t even show that the weak spots exist – you must be confident and show confidence. But that doesn’t happen automatically. We need to practice that, too.
Practice showing confidence. Practice trusting your process. Practice doing the work.
We only perform what we practice, so if we don’t practice confidence we’ll never be able to portray it in performance.
