“Sometimes I have experienced at the start of a film you're very excited and enthusiastic and you've done all your preparation internally and externally and you start the film and it's all go... Then your attention goes somewhere else. Your energy goes into telling the story, so you don't have the same amount of energy to be objective, and that's okay because sometimes you become a subject of the story and you're inside it so much that you don't need to keep on looking on the outside.” NeedsSometimesDoneStoriesFilmEnergyAttentionSubjectsAmountOkayExcitedObjectivesPreparationEnthusiasticSomewhere Else Author:Colin Farrell

“Having had been not so well traveled as a kid, as most teenagers aren't, I always thought, "Okay I'm going to focus my energy on rap and the rap game, because that's how I'm going to be able to pay rent and pay off my school loans."

“Fear is a big reason. Ultra achievers don't have an attitude for overcoming fear. They just do it anyway, because they're okay with being afraid.

“When I make films I'm very intuitive; I'm instinctive. When you are shooting there's little time to think about abstract ideas, it's about getting things done, getting them right, and trying to channel the energies and get the best of whatever you have on your set. It's only once the film is finished that it's like, "Okay, let's try to figure out what happened." Try to figure out exactly what I did.” ThinkingTryingLittlesIdeasDoneFilmEnergyHappenedFiguresOkayFinishedShootingAbstractIntuitiveThings DoneLittle TimeTime To ThinkGetting Things Done Author:Olivier Assayas
“You can find the money, you'll be okay, but the things that you choose to invest your energy in, that shapes your life and your path and where you go from there.

“Punk rock was the first thing I found in my life that made me feel acceptable. The thing that got me into punk rock was the idea, "You're fine just the way you are." It sounds kind of dorky, but you don't have to make excuses for who you are or what you do. When you find something like punk rock, not only is it okay to feel that way - you should embrace your weirdness. The world is totally messed up, and punk rock was a way to see that and work with it without candy-coating it. It was saying, "Yeah, the world is this way, but you can still do something about it. Take energy from that."” WorldKindEnergyOkayWho You AreEmbraceExcusePunkPunk RockWeirdnessDorky Author:John Porcellino
“You take your audience through such a story where they have to invest their energy and emotion, and to slap them in the face with, "Well, this is how life is. Bye," wouldn't have been as great as the ending that we have, which is optimistic and hopeful. It's not happy 100%, but it does make you feel like, "This kid may just be okay."” KidsEnergyEmotionAudienceOkayOptimisticHopefulSlapNot Happy Author:John Boyega
“If you're recording the song on your four-track in your kitchen, when you finished writing the song, you're recording, and it's cool, and honor that. And maybe that's the version that should be released. And if you're recording the song again, it shouldn't be because there's a version you love that you're chasing. It should be because "You know what? I made a recording, but I don't love it emotionally." So, okay, then record again. And be in it and take advantage of the buzz and energy of "I'm getting to record right now!" It's such a beautiful and cool privilege.” WritingBeautifulSongEnergyHonorOkayKitchen Author:Jon Brion
