Make It!

When Steven Spielberg was 10 years old, his father gave him an electric toy train as a gift. He would have fun creating train wrecks by ramming his miniature trains into each other and eventually they would break. 

 

The first time, his father repaired the trains but warned him that if he broke the trains again, he would take it away from him. 

 

The young boy had the idea of using his family’s home video camera to shoot close-up shots of his trains crashing so that if they eventually broke, he could relive that moment by watching it over and over again. 

 

He became increasingly ambitious in his productions and eventually started filming narrative movies that he would show off in school. As an established director and producer, he would say, ‘You shouldn’t dream your film, you should make it!’

There are many who conceive what they want to do, but often do not cross the stage of ideation. We must implement the idea we conceived. We should make the film, we dreamt about.

 

Not ‘making it’ can have many excuses but there is no reason to hold back the act of implementation. We must move beyond imagination to ‘make it!’ 

Don’t be at ease after you ‘Think It’

Tre success is when you ‘Make it!’
