Thank you for watching! Gary W. Goldstein's entire video series is one we have received many comments on via Twitter, etc. Glad it's inspirational for you.
Dude, honestly though... we dreamers, because we are always thinking about all the things we're going to do, we identify with that. Sometimes the ideas in our head are satisfying enough that we don't do the simple daily activities that contribute towards it. The saddest part, is that most people don't realize it. To be fair, most of us are trapped in that state of mind. And it's painful because you try to explain to people who need it, but this is something every person has to realize on their own.
Im a 46 yr old daydreamer, I committed to a year of brainstorming my dream project last april. I spend about an hour each day brainstorming and its been slow going but very consistent development. I made some concrete choices straight away which has kept my process focused brainstorming rather than the structureless daydreaming ive known all my life. Theres a bit more to it but making those early choices in regards to the genre, overall structure and major influences has been the biggest game changer for me thus far. Your channel is super helpful too :D
So true, In 1988 I was a 23 year old young filmmaker/dreamer. I discovered Gwen Stefani in No Doubt, at 23 years old in 1991 I was the first to direct Gwen in a short interview from my Gwen/No Doubt documentary. I'm 48 years old now sitting on a production I shot of the Red Hot Chili Peppers from 1988 thru 1991, still dreaming of getting it to post production for a documentary release of their "break through" years
Ben SL Thanks Ben, we love our interview with Gary. Wish we had our sound system in place back then. Maybe we'll have another opportunity to speak with him in the future.
I'm a film maker over 40 and this video almost seems written for me. I'm trying to make my dreams reality, but it's not easy. Discipline seems to be the answer.
If You think that hard work change something in the capitalistic society than You are a dreamer or simply doesn't understand capitalism. You will not gain anything without money in the contemporary social reality. To create something really special You need at least time and as we know time = money. No money = no time. And even if You'll create something You need money to make it visible... As an artist which have created literally thousands of drawings which nobody wants to show on major exhibition or buy, I'm sure that it's about money or politics of some sort. So - I find this this kind of "motivational talks" HIGHLY TOXIC. It's a process of creating of another lost generation of slaves which will work whole their life very hard and which will gain nothing.

Balance is what works for me. Everything flows when you lead a balanced life.

I have that dreaming problem.
This was excellent. I would love to have coffee with this man. What a great mind - he'd be a great mentor.

This is kinda like Simon's realization that dreams need logic in the end of TTGL
Uh, I would never stop being a dreamer. My characters won't breathe if I do.
