I spent the first 25 years of my life not knowing what I wanted to do.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I graduated I wasn't sure what I wanted to do, but I knew I didn't want a conventional career.
Eventually I lost the idea that I could have a career. I thought I was too old.
I wanted to acquire an education, work extremely hard and never deviate from my goal, to make it.
It took a long time to get to the place in my career where I could pick and choose what I wanted to do.
When I was a kid I didn't know what I wanted to be when I grew up, but I did know what I didn't want to do. I didn't want to grow up, have 2.2 kids, get married, the whole white picket fence thing.
I think early on I knew what I was going to do and it was based a lot on familiarity but it was also because I didn't have a lot of skills. There was nothing I wanted t be. I didn't want to be a doctor. I wanted to be in show business.
For the last thirty years in my career I never know what I'm doing next.
I got the first job and kept going. Once I got a job, I very much wanted to keep getting jobs, basically. I did try to learn what I could in those first couple of decades.
When I started working, I didn't have a clue what I was doing, in that I was just wandering around, hoping that I could succeed. Then after I got a little under my belt, it took me about 25 years to feel like I knew what I was doing.
I gave up the idea of having a career when I was 24. Sounds glamorous, but I've been doing things since then, and part of those adventures was to make films because I realised I was actually quite good at it and I enjoyed it.
