clear sense of what kind of house you want. If you want a family-centered home, you plan a family room where it would be a natural gathering
place. You plan sliding doors and a patio for children to play outside. You work with ideas. You work withyour mind until you get a clear image of
what you want to build.
Then you reduce it to blueprint and develop construction plans. All of this is done before the earth is touched. If not, then in the second creation,
the physical creation, you will have to make expensive changes that may double the cost of your home.
The carpenter's rule is "measure twice, cut once." You have to make sure that the blueprint, the first creation, is really what you want, that you've
thought everything through. Then you put it into bricks and mortar. Each day you go to the construction shed and pull out the blueprint to get
marching orders for the day.
You Begin with the End in Mind.
For another example, look at a business. If you want to have a successful enterprise, you clearly define what you're trying to accomplish. You
carefully think through the product or service you want to provide in terms of your market target, then you organize all the elements -- financial,
research and Development, operations, marketing, personnel, physical facilities, and so on -- to meet that objective. The extent to which you Begin
with the End in Mind often determines whether or not you are able to create a successful enterprise.
The same principle is true for a filmmaker. A good script is the most important factor in making a successful film. Ask any successful director and he
would tell you that he always look out for a good script before taking any project.
The question
Where the script is born?
Yes at the thought level
