“You go to that computer when you know you’ve got something to get out. And if you don’t have anything that’s ready to leap out, you better be finding ways to start digging something up, even if that means sitting down and watching a movie, or reading a book. Even if that means taking a walk or daydreaming. But getting in that spot where you put that pressure on yourself…that’s a head-fuck. Like, ‘Right, I’ve gotta come up with something good…’ That’ll ruin your confidence so fast.”
— Paul Thomas Anderson
