The venerable decades-old acronym on your car's steering column is a metaphor for being a freelance voice-acting success.
Sure, the letters originally stood for Park, Reverse, Neutral, Drive and Low… but not anymore.
Now, when I look down at my dashbord, I'm reminded of the five words that will make me a voiceover success…if I but follow the forumula.
P = Practice….and practice and practice…no matter how good I THINK I've gotten
R= Reach out to others for help and to give help. Get Coaching, give mentoring.
N= Never give up in the face of disappointment. Rejection only hardens my resolve.
D= Dive into new challenges — right brain & left brain
L= Leave a trail of excellence and integrity.
Now turn on the ignition and get going!
