  • How To Get Out Of Your Own Way
    Jul 21 2025

    "Remember that for the next time. It's easier said than done, but you really should own that. When I got out of my way, not only did everybody really respond to me, but I knew I crushed it."

    Today’s episode was ripped directly from one of our 10,000 NOs Working Actors Community weekly zooms where Matt addresses the challenges that face our members. Today, we discuss how we can be our own biggest enemy. Sometimes we need to get out of our own way to get the results we desire. It's why sometimes when we are thrown into a situation and we don't have time to think, we get great results. We no longer are wasting energy on guarding ourselves and it allows our true essence to come out. That's when we are at our best.

    10,000 NOs is here to inspire you and help you realize you are not alone if you’re battling to overcome rejection in your career or life.

    So, if you’re an actor, writer or filmmaker and you like what you hear in the snippets from our Working Actors Community zooms enough to want to be a part of it, CLICK HERE.

    Remember, “failure” is just opportunity in disguise, and you can flip the script to make your setbacks serve you.

  • Are You Allowing The Success?
    Jul 14 2025

    "In some ways we don't have to earn it. It's so against my nature to even say that. But, I always think I've got to earn it before I can get it. And that's why I think for me, the 25 years of earning it, now I'm allowed to receive it. But, you can just click the switch and go, 'I'm going to receive it.'"

    Today’s episode was ripped directly from one of our 10,000 NOs Working Actors Community weekly zooms where Matt addresses the challenges that face our members. Today, we discuss how when you're in alignment, things will flow towards you. The more we can get out of our own way, the more we will draw in our highest desires.
