Finding your path...
Finding your path and navigating the media industry as a filmmaker can be extremely difficult if you let it. There are countless jobs, freelance roles, agencies, and more at your disposal. You add on top of that having to deal with daily decision making that influences your present and future…it’s no wonder so many people feel stuck.
Before expressing more on my views on finding your path, it is important to find ways that help you learn more about who you are, where you’re at, and where you plan ongoing.
10 Tips to Choose the Right Path in Life:
1) Get to know yourself: this is spending time alone, and knowing how to feel comfortable with being uncomfortable.
2) Consider your passions & what you are doing: What works best with me is writing things down. The importance of writing something down can go a long way while giving you a visual of what your goals and processes of completing them look like.
3) Reflect on your core competencies: What are your strengths? What makes you unique? What are you really good at that you can help others on?
Take it from me, someone who was extremely lost just a few years ago before I leaned all the way into filmmaking as my journey, it takes time and effort to get where you want to be but just know the universe has got your back.
If you believe in yourself and the effort your putting in, things will align for you. The right people will seemingly enter your life. The best gigs will suddenly come gliding across your desk. And no it’s not some magic trick. It’s the culmination of hard work, dedication, and trust in one’s path…IN YOUR PATH.
What has worked for me may not work for you and vice versa. Trust your path and go forward with an unbound passion.
Love you and see you at the top! Enjoy the climb.
