This is the familiar phrase of a director getting ready to shoot a scene. It does provide a great correlation into self-improvement. For a scene to be filmed correctly you will need the lights to provide an environment for the scene. Poor lighting or no lighting will affect the end result. This scene is also going to need a camera. The camera is the focal point for the audience to see visually what the director is directing. Lastly, for this scene to take place there needs to be some acting.
Lights = The environment you choose to surround yourself with, must be conducive to the life you want to live. What do you need to change about your environment right now, to begin properly setting up the correct strategies and action plans?
Camera = Your focus will determine your actions. If you begin race car driving school, one lesson they teach is how to recover from spinning out of control. They do this by rigging the car to spin out. Do you know a piece of advice they give you prior to putting you in the car? Don’t look at the wall! Where you look is where you go. Where is your focus? What are the little things you are doing or failing to do day in and day out? In those little things you are doing, what do they lead to? What is their focus?
Action = The X factor. I have learned that most people have grand plans, ideas, and good intentions. It is the person that can get themselves to take action. Now just taking action is not enough, you must do it day by day.
When all is said and done, you are in the director’s chair of your own life. You set the stage, you direct the focus of the camera, and you have to inspire action.
