As he accepted a SAG award Brad Pitt said,
“I’ve been banging away at this thing for 30 years. I think the simple math is, some projects work and some don’t. There’s no reason to belabor either one. Just get on to the next.”
You can put all the thought, worry and stress you want into trying to predict which way the coin will flip.
It’s all precious time and energy wasted.
I don’t even know Brad Pitt’s flops.
I will always remember Fight Club.
It’s bad ass.
If you’re the type that likes to stress…
Ok.
Put your focus on how can I minimize my risk?
How can I maximize upside?
Stress all you want on those two areas.
Then let it go and…
Then flip. Flip. FLIP!!
Walt Disney produced dozens of films that flopped.
Then in 1938 he produced Snow White and had an 8 million dollar winner which paid off all his debts and bought a state of the art studio in Burbank, California which I think still stands today.
8 millie was a heap in 1938.
I’m suuuuper impressed with all the bold moves Ronin are flipping.
Some will work.
Some won’t.
Will you make ONE bold move by midnight?
Who knows, could that bold move be your Snow White?
If not…
Nobody will remember.
Rooting for Ya,
Travis
