Stop Climbing The Entertainment Industry Ladder And Start Leaping
Since early childhood we’ve been taught that in order to succeed, we need to climb the ladder of success one rung at a time. We’ve been told that if we put in the time and do god work, we’ll get to where we ultimately want to be. But that’s complete and utter bullshit! The true leaders of the world (whether in the entertainment industry or not) are leapers! People who take big leaps instead of small steps.
It’s sad, but true. “Climbing the ladder of success” is the idea behind all academic, corporate and association hierarchies, and it’s the ladder model that gives those at the top authority and power over those beneath them.
The question is, do you want to be at the top of the ladder? Or the bottom?
If you ever want to succeed in this industry, you’ve got to be a leaper in everything you do. You’ve got to get that job you aren’t 100% qualified for. You’ve got to get that financing to fund your next film so you can get into Sundance. You’ve got to convince that A list actress to star in your shot film.
Stop thinking small and stop thinking one step at a time.
Instead, start thinking big… and start leaping!
