Today’s episode is part 2 of two-part case study (click here for part 1) that dives deep into the question that plagues so many trying to land their dream job in scripted entertainment:To assist, or not to assist: That is the question!In part 2 of this case study I chat with Wellington Harrison, an assistant editor with nine years experience in the post-production industry who’s worked across multiple genres and formats from drama to animation and beyond. Wellington is a unique case study in that he originally came from a completely different industry - architecture - and has been forging his own path to success in Hollywood ever since.After working with Wellington for 12 weeks in my one-on-one career coaching &amp; mentorship program, Wellington has confidently come to the conclusion that at this point, the route that makes the most sense for him to build a fulfilling career and lead a happy life is pursuing work as an editor in independent features.There is no set path we can follow to success in our industry, but it is possible to design your own unique path if you know the right questions to ask and the right steps to follow. My purpose for sharing this case study with you is to demonstrate how Wellington designed his own path so you can then apply what you learn to your own journey.If after listening to this interview you do want to learn more and apply to work with me for the next several months and beyond, enrollment is currently open in my career coaching &amp; mentorship program, but time slots are extremely limited.Applications will only be accepted through Friday May 10th.Want to work with me one-one-one to land your dream job?» Click here to apply for Optimize Yourself EliteHere's What You'll Learn:Wellington's beginning in marketing and his journey through different industriesFighting film industry impostor syndromeThere is no correct or incorrect step towards your goal, only the one that you are able to makeDesigning your own career path through the industryRespecting your own journey to the work you want to be doingClarity's essential role in making sure your goals are achievableFinding the perfect goal using the "Goldilocks Principle"Useful Resources Mentioned:Click here to apply for Optimize Yourself Elite Ep55: How Tiny Changes Can Create Remarkable Results | with James Clear Ep70: To Assist or Not to Assist...That Is the Question (pt 1) | with Chris CavanaghOur Generous Sponsors:This episode is made possible for you by Ergodriven, the makers of the Topo Mat, my #1 recommendation for anyone who stands at their workstation.
