    I'm in awe. This is so thought-provoking. I think everyone can relate to this. That long pause at the end is so telling because at some point in life you realise that you get fewer and fewer opportunities, and then if you're lucky enough to get one more, you do exactly what the man did - you jump at it.

    Stunningly powerful, my friend. The fact that you wrote, directed, acted, lighted, and produced this riveting piece makes it that much more impressive. And memorable. You've given us a one minute look into the paralyzing power of fear. Thank you for this. And for getting up out of that damn chair that has held us all one time or another.

      What can possibly go wrong?
      Just know that the only person who matters in this goddamn world for you, whose opinions matters to you, is you.
      And one day you will grow old n die. No matter whatever you do. So just do it for yourself.
      Idk what u wanna do/be. If u r an artist/writer/filmmaker make that art for yourself. Do it for yourself. You are the audience.
      Do that business because You want to be rich or contribute to the world.
      The things i am saying will give you a mindset. Reality is, fear will always be there. You gotta work through it.
      Just say, "what can go wrong? Its not like they gonna kill me?" You know, "Fuck it. Whatever happens, happens."
      Or just counter 'that' fear with your biggest fear- "Time is running out. Dont wanna die a nobody."
      Just make a routine, make mini goals, weekly goal. That this week i will do this, doing a small thing will give u confidence. Then when all the pieces are lined up, and u have joined them, then u will find yr fear is no more.
      Just take baby steps. Make a plan, and just start it. Just say 123 and just push them wheels.. When u r in the road, you will eventually learn to drive, right?
      (i wrote so long, u might feel creepy or preachy but it is what it is. Just stop thinking and do it man. Or do it while thinking)
