My friend Pam Tierney blogs today about learning to accept help when offered and to ask for help when needed. Regardless of where you are in your life and your voiceover business, you probably need some help now and then. On the other hand, you can probably offer some help now and then, too.
In the last 25 plus years, many people have given me help, sometimes when I didn’t even realize how much I needed it. And never with the expectation of being compensated. I have received so much generosity through the years it makes my head spin when I think about it.
When someone asks me for help, they nearly always ask “how can I repay you?” My answer is always the same. “Don’t try to pay me back. Look for an opportunity to help someone else. That’s the best repayment of all.”
One of the things I love best about the voiceover business is the way people in this business do help one another. Let’s keep it going!
[...] Today of special note on Bob’s blog is his insight about the support we all receive within our careers. [...]
