Last week, Jason Calacanis posted a clip from Gladiator that he says he watches every day before work for inspiration.
This is my equivalent. I came across it yesterday on my Entourage Season Six DVDs (this is from Chapter 3 of Episode 3) while procrastinating from other work and just generally not feeling the energy. Needless to say, I got up and got stuff done right after this scene.
At 19 years old, I’m at a totally different point in my life/career than Jason. I mean literally my entire memory of Gladiator was hearing the incredible sound design of the swords and coliseum(s?) from my bed at age 8, since the rest of family was watching the film after my bedtime. I haven’t gotten around to seeing it since. But I’m also just getting started, and I feel like one half (maybe even a little more) of my brain is Turtle in this clip, and the rest of my brain is Ari. I’m trying to get a little more of the latter.
