I was participating.
I have the same one.
I'm finding out, oh yeah, they let you walk, but you were supposed to make up two credits.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we did.
There's no foundation for this fear.
When you set your sights on something and it was challenging and you spent years working towards it, I think it's natural that you accumulate some anxiety around that topic.
I have dreams where I show up on a set and I'm quickly realizing, oh, you're directing this.
Oh, I haven't read the script.
That's a dream.
Oh, good.
I have no anxiety as a director in real life.
I love being on a set.
I'm quite confident.
But in these dreams, I somehow have been directing something I haven't read the script of yet.
I tell my kids when they have nightmares, your dreams and your nightmares are this beautiful way of your brain telling you what you care about.
Because if you didn't care about it, you wouldn't be fearful it's going to go away.
