Rid yourself of the illusion that strategy is a series of steps to be followed toward a goal. Run in the opposite direction of any expert or guru proclaiming to possess a formula for success.

You and William Goldman are right, Joe Orlandino. There are different ways to find success in the industry, and there are different ways to produce/direct/write a movie or show. That's why I ignore people who say "you can't do it this way" or "you have to write a script this way."

I love that quote Joe Orlandino . I think it's a good one to keep in mind for life in general. Although I prefer to surround myself with people that know more than me, no one knows everything. That includes me. Best to keep our hearts and minds open. Thanks for sharing this.
This is true, at least true-ish, so long as it isn't taken as refusing the value of actual experience. I note everyone these days is encouraged to pay to learn how to pitch, to pay to learn how to format, to pay for "coverage" on their work, to pay to create budgets, etc.... instead of learning it themselves.
