I guess… if you take a deep look within, you’ll feel whether it’s something you truly want to do or not.
There was a moment, a while ago, when I never wanted to direct again. But it stayed on my mind. Annoyingly. Drilling into my skull while I was watching other films.
And film is big, chaotic, and beautiful, with many spots to fill. It’s not about climbing to the top, but about finding what makes you want to get out of bed in the morning. I’ve seen directors turn into editors, editors become musicians, musicians turn into directors. In the end, it doesn’t matter. Nothing really does.
Just find something that makes you feel something.
And when you get bored, remember, life is too long to spend doing things that leave you feeling nothing.
It’s never too late to destroy everything and start all over again.
If it’s truly what you want to do, you’ll do it anyway.
Not because you want to.
Not because of your studies or your love for film.
Not because one day you made up this self-made dream.
But simply… because you can’t help yourself.
