DID I MISS ANYONE? WANT TO BECOME ONE OF THESE FOLKS?

Direct? Produce? Write? Act? Open a business? Retire? Or just simply love your life and your work and getting up in the morning.

Is it time to overhaul your resume? Do you need a bio? Cover letter? Have you updated your reel? Which of these things is relevant for you? Has it changed in the past few years?

Which projects will you focus on next year? Which projects went stagnant this year?

Been passed over for a promotion or a raise? Want to stay where you are but not sure how to plan your ascent?

Are you inspired? Have you forgotten why you got into the business in the first place? Feeling burdened by your projects rather than excited?

How will your project or business become or stay profitable?

Who will you need to know to make your projects happen? Who’s already in your address book that can help you if you ask the right question?

Lets plan your exit strategy and figure out the right place for you. What part of the industry? What kind of position? How can you re-brand and revitalize your career path?

Is it time to sell your project? What companies are right for you? What attachments will you need? What contacts?

Are you getting stuff done or spinning your wheels? Do you know when to focus on completion rather than perfection?

If you’re writing what projects will you focus on? When will you find your writing time?

Is your team ready to expand? Contract? Need more help? More hands? More outsourcing? More options? Less options? Better use of internal resources?
