Don't take what you have, limit your possibilities

If you take a glass of water in your hand, what are you going to do next?

This problem was first seen in a book. I thought it was very interesting, so I asked a lot of people. Their answer was nothing more than: drinking, pouring, splashing, and sprinkling. So, suddenly I thought of a buddy story around me.

The first time I met C, it was online. At that time, I was still a teacher, and I wanted to shoot a microfilm. So I posted a post on the Internet saying that if you want to make a movie, whether you have a professional or not, as long as you still have an actor dream, I hope You can join my team.

C is a student at a hotel university. The students there are almost four years old, playing games or being sleepy. He is the same, boring to brush the web, and then thinking about which hotel to go after graduation. Work.

C gave me a resume, and soon, we sat down and talked about the script. At first he just wanted to play with the female number one, but because of his long-sightedness, after several of our discussions, I firmly believed that the male one was him. On the first day of his participation in our crew, he began to work diligently with the crew. He shot more than two points in the middle of the night. The cold wind rusted, and I took two photos with him, took the flyover, and got frozen. Trembling. After entering the hotel, soon, our hands could not move. He ordered a cigarette and said a word faintly: fuck.

I said, no, no. If you can't, don't go this route.

He said that it was really cool.

Six months later, we successfully opened the second project and filmed the second film. From the protagonist, C became a behind-the-scenes producer. He began to plan the famous things: location, time, material distribution, and occasionally, he would also propose some sub-lens. In the next six months, we set up the Dragon Shadow Tribe Studio, and C became a partner and started something really related to the movie.

In the second year, C graduated from the hotel school. In that year, everyone was discussing which big hotel to be the waiter, which small hotel to be the manager, and which country to apply for the same profession, C resolutely began to enter the film circle. I walked into Bona and became a producer. Because the university had some film foundations in the past four years, it was quickly recognized by the film industry.

After a long time, we filmed at a hotel and saw his friend, who was already a manager. The manager saw him and shouted, isn't this C? How to start making movies!

C smiled and dealt with two sentences. When he returned to the road, he told me that if he had come to the crew for an internship, he might be a hotel. I really don't know where I am now.

I said that it is good to be a hotel.

He said, after all, I don't like it too much.

There have been many college students who have asked me, if I study law, can I be a moderator in the future; if I study aesthetics, I can be a historian in the future; if I study electrical, I can be a director in the future. It seems to be completely irrelevant, but my answer is yes.

Because these three examples are Sabinin, Yi Zhongtian and Gao Xiaosong.

We walked into the university gate, originally intended to make our vision more broad, but unfortunately, when we were forced or had to choose a professional moment, we suddenly found that our vision was smaller. Everything we do is to serve professional courses; our future must be related to the profession; even when looking for a job, the first thing someone asks is what you are. However, who stipulates that a person's assigned major in a university must be the way to do it in the future. Who stipulates that the type of university on a person must be engaged in related work.

no one.

Perhaps, you are learning mechanical, but if you like English, why not go to the university for four years to learn English, participate in the activities of the English community, go to the English competition that everyone can participate to prove their defeat, and then through these competitions, Meet some of the friends in the circle, and then cross the border.

Perhaps, you are learning English, but you like film and television, so why not let yourself go to the crew to practice, know more about the cattle in the circle, or, when others are playing, prepare to take a graduate student in the film school. .

My undergraduate major has nothing to do with English. I participated in the English speech contest that year, and almost all of them were English majors. When I beat them, they began to ask, you are not an English major, how to learn English so well.

I said, because I am willing to work hard. You study for five hours a day, I will study for eight hours; you will recite one hundred words a day, and I will back three hundred.

The road is your own, the wider and wider, or the narrower and narrower, it is your own decision, nothing to do with what you have.

In this case, why use existing things to limit your choices and future.

Going back to the opening question, if you have a glass of water, what are you doing next? The answer is simple. You have to do what you want to do, and it is not related to water. This glass of water can be our work, our profession, our school, in short, our existing things, but how many people just stare at this glass of water and forget the purpose of their real life.

Indeed, when you have a glass of water, you can completely let go, do what you should do, go and chase and go to the wandering to go south, instead of stopping because of a glass of water, limiting what you have. limit.

Since there are countless possibilities for life, why should we have a glass of water to limit our pace?
