I completely understand what you are talking about because I also am guility of over-concentrating on certain auditions and solo performances even though I know I am fully capable and always bring my finest work. As to your anology to the "Riddikulus charm", with outeven reading further on, I stopped and thought....wait she is SO RIGHT... I DO need to trust my abilites and to stop all of this negative talk because really this is just completely ridiculous since I know it's not true. So Thank you for having touched on a subject that many people have brought to my attention but have never truly made me fully understand or been able to articulate into a relatable example.
