Motivational tips?
How did you keep the motivation to try to make a good movie through all those years in Hollywood, despite never succeeding?
Motivation comes naturally from having the warrior's heart. If you don't have a warriors heart, you must become the warrior. Once you have the warrior's heart, you are called motivated while you only act on your nature. You don't need motivation, you do as the warrior does, and act, because that is what a warrior does. In war, you can't think, you can only do, not doing meams death. My sensei once told me "there is only action and inaction, a warrior only acts because that is how a warrior wins." That really spoke to me when I meditated upon it through my years.
Isn’t inaction one of the defining traits of meditation?
Meditation is an action of the mind and spirit, but inaction of the body. A warrior knows when to act with the mind as well as the body. I have studied and meditated on the great philosophy of war taught by Sun Tsu in The Art of War for many years and have come to understand that a great warrior is wise, because a warrior who does not think, dies before he is great.
