You will win the audition if you do these steps in order!.!.!.

-Night before your audition, sleep on your back
-Sleep with an eye mask and ear plugs
-When you wake up, first thing to do is keep your eye mask and ear plugs on and in, then find the floor and start meditating
-While your meditating, imagine a water fall, the water fall is your emotions!. You have endless emotions!. Reach out, touch the water fall, let the water fall splash *Splish Splash! Splish Splash!*
-After feeling your water fall of emotions, take your ear plugs out and simply listen!.
-Keep your eye mask on, just listen to what your hear and think about everything you're hearing!. Nothing is something, if you hear nothing, then that's what you will concentrate on!.
-Catagorize what into objects!. Place these objects on a giant raft going down your water fall!.
-Listen to the sound of the crash of the raft hitting the bottom of your emotions!. Hear what your objects of hearing are telling you, and remember!.
-Now it's time to take off the eye mask, take it off BUT DON'T OPEN YOUR EYES!.
-See the light from inside your eye lids!. Notice how the color of your waterfall changes with this new sensation!.
-Think about rafts of sounds crashing at the bottom and ask your self how they are different now that you see the light from the inside!.
-It's time to open your eyes!.!.!. do it as FAST as you can!.
-BURN that image of what you see straight into your head, DO NOT BLINK!.
-When you need to blink, finally do, but don't blink, just close your eyes again and take a DEEP BREATH!.!.!. And hold!.!.!. 2!.!.!. 3!.!.!. Release!.
-Do this 5 times!.
-After you're finish with your last breath, you're now ready to stand!.
-Open your eyes once again and stand up!.
-Notice your feet, your ankles, your calfs, your knees, your thighs, your butt, your pelvic bone, your tail bone, your lower spine, your middle spine, your upper spine, the crown of your head, the muscles holding up your head!.!.!.!. notice them!.!.!.!. yes!.!.!.!. simply become aware!.
-Do this for about 10 minutes!.
-Now it's time to convince your self!. Start repeating the phrase, "Today is the most important day of my life" over and over again until each syllable of each word become ripples of your emotional water fall!. Let the sound of each word caress your lips, your tongue, your air ways!.
-Now that you have emotional meaning behind that simple phrase!. It's time to get ready for the audition!.
-Get naked, and wash your self, but when you are showering!.!.!. You are NOT showering with water!. Words are imperfect, they only hold representation behind an object or meaning!. Since today is, "The most important day of your life" what you know as, "Water" will now be called, "Emotion" So turn the faucet and feel the emotion run down your body!. Wash your self with emotion!. Wash your hair with emotion!. Wash your face with emotion!. Feel emotion soak into your skin!. Once you're done, dry emotion off your body!. Continue the rest of your hygienic procedures using emotion!. For you today, water does not exist!. Only emotion!. Drink plenty of emotion before leave your house!. Feel the emotion nurture your innards!.
-When you eat breakfast, eat a banana, apple, half a strawberry, 3 grapes, and 2 blueberries!. Have toasted wheat bread with it!. Only use organic peach jam!. To drink you will have 2 packets of Lemon Ziner No caffine Organic Herbal Tea!. Put it in almost boiling emotion and let it brew with 2 slices of lemon and 3 table spoons of honey!. Honey will become your best friend for the day!. Be sure you dedicate a bottle of honey for today, you can't over dose on it, but it will simply work wonders for you!.
-When the tea is done brewing, feel hot emotion take over your senses!. Feel it run through your veins!. Feel it nurture your well being!.
-On your way to the audition, DON'T PRACTICE YOUR LINES!. You've either got it or you don't!. No turning back now!.
-Never Ever Ever Ever Ever Ever doubt your self!. You are one with your emotions!.!.!. you are made up of mostly emotion!. 78%!.!.!.!.i think!.!.!. So let the emotion in your body drive you to a subconscious performance that you didn't even know you had!.
-Once again, you've either got it, or you don't!. You've either done your preparation, or you didn't!.!.!. no learning anything or memorizing anything the day of your audition!. Remember, today is THE MOST IMPORTANT DAY OF YOUR LIFE!. Don't let any obstacles get in the way of that knowledge!.
-When you walk into that audition room don't walk in!. Let the emotion in your body guide you in!.
-Once you're in the room, read or perform what ever you need to, but do it from the waterfall!. Remember the words your speaking are ripples in your waterfall of emotion!. Rather!.!.!. they are ripples in your emotionfall of emotions!.
-Allow every emotion fall off your tongue with ripples of the syllables as if it were the edge of the emotionfall itself!!
