“but if you make a mistake and you learn from it that's called wisdom”

Fear of failure should not deter people from pursuing their desires, as failing is a normal part of the process of growth.

“I knew I had to do something extraordinary or something different. I couldn't wait for a directing gig to come to me. I had to create it for myself.”

Completing a race after setbacks is a valuable practice for the future and helps maintain mental discipline.
