Oh, my favorite trick in the whole world. Which never failed. At least so far. Mix it like this: take a confusing piece of a situation with a crossroads, a few kilos of the dust of imagination and self-knowledge until homogenized.
You can find the ingredients everywhere, especially the confusing situations, which do not let you sleep at night, work during the day and which give you peace only when he stands firmly over you and in you or you mellow on top, and all the questions seem to melt into an insane torment of pleasure. But as soon as the after cigarette is put out, your peace is gone too. And you start over by measuring the decision around, like a hat you’re going to have to wear for a long time after you make it.
But what the brain can do with a bucket of imagination? Ohoho, so many good things, so many bad.
If you start and measure by calculating from now on, the decision is hard to make because you bump into all the surrounding “reality,” all the “you can not,” “you do not know,” how much money you have in your account, all the fears and the thoughts that frighten you even though they are only in your head and make you stupid.
But the trick is…to measure backwards.
The trick is to go 60 years forward and see yourself at about 90 years old, old and grey, with your grandchildren around you, telling them the story of your life while they get bored and would do anything to escape your stories.
The trick is … to see your life as a movie almost finished or, well, as two, three, four movies because you’re just at a crossroads. Let your imagination run wild, do all the scenarios in all 4 directions, and there will be light. Cause only one of those scenarios is acceptable, only one is the story you want to tell your grandchildren. The one that makes you giggle while writing the script and, most likely, the one that scares you the most but fills your soul.
And that’s the only way to go! The rest there are just a bunch of cheap movies that wouldn’t even make it to a European festival.
