“Having a child is the polar opposite experience of the awards season experience. The awards-season experience requires you to be out in the community, in the heart of the community, at the nucleus of the film community in a really committed way for about a six-month period of time. Having a child requires you to nest, to be in your home, and to create and make your home and environment that is one that is potentially very welcoming and nurturing for a child.” WayHeartChildrenHomeFilmCommunityEnvironmentMonthsPeriodsSixOppositesSeasonsCommittedWelcomeAwardsSix MonthsNestsNurturingNucleusPolar Opposites Author:Mahershala Ali

“Is success just about winning? Acclaim? Trophies? Wealth? Our personal happiness or satisfaction? I have been blessed to experience some of these over the years, and I can answer without batting an eye: No. Accomplishments, applause, awards and fortune are rewards that often come as the result of hard work and a determined spirit, but there is something bigger.

That something can only be found when we look beyond the final score.” YearsLooksHas BeensI CanHardEyeSpiritFoundWinningWealthAnswersResultsHard WorkOfficeSeasonsBiggerBlessedFortuneRewardsFinalsSatisfactionCornersDeterminedAccomplishmentScoreAwardsCheerApplauseSomething BetterTrophiesBonusBattingPersonal HappinessAcclaimResults Of Hard Work Author:Tom Osborne
