Meaning-making to change your stage presence
In his article The Art of Making Meaning [a summary of his podcast], creativity coach and author Eric Maisel speaks about a client of his:
“Jack, an actor, had excellent verbal skills but a poor physical presence on stage.
“With my help, he decided that he had to take responsibility for that aspect of his career and invest his daily exercise routine with new meaning, transforming it from a chore into something much more valuable.
“Now, when he worked out, he paid less attention to how many reps he was doing and more attention to feeling strong and confident in his own skin.
“Jack used ‘I take responsibility’ as his meaning-making mantra and used it to motivate himself to change his stage presence.”
