I am.pretty sure i have said it before, i am an actress, and form my experience i recomand to follow the passion but with tactics. I strongly support david in this new path and it would help a lot to take some screenwritting courses. To learn the basics. After that...things will fall into place. Also there is nothing to lose. Hope i will se a movie one day with Mustard on it. Your name...not the condiment:))))

You go girl! (And boy;) Here’s my silly dream: I work as a paramedic, and the uniform clothes are particularly bad for us women in the job. There made for male Bodies, don’t look great and are sometimes uncomfortable. I sew clothes for many many years now, and have a small business running next to my main job, so I wondered - can I make a good looking, good functioning uniform for the female paramedics, and get it manufactured for companies to use?

I love this for you, Jenny!! I am a theater actor. I started after turning forty, having wanted to act my whole life, and I have had such amazing experiences in theatre for the last dozen years. My most recent credit was playing Lady MacBeth. I have been wanting to write playscripts for years, as well. I have written a few short one acts, but I dream of writing full length plays I can produce myself, with a fantastic role tailor made for me. I have been putting this off, but I feel so inspired by you making all of your dreams come true. I will make a pact with you to start writing today!! xx

I worked for years with an actor who created her own production company writing, producing and acting in her own historical dramas. She created a number of one woman traveling shows that she sold to univiersities, museums, clubs, etc. I worked as her stage manager and assistant. She traveled all over the world and we presented in major museums and even the Harvard Clubs in Boston and New York. It iwas quite a lot of work. She was also the PR person, marketing manager and set up and strike was a bit of work even with just basic lighting and props. How I miss the late Robin Lane and what adventures we had.

I was previously a dance fitness studio owner which I sold, then coffee truck owner - also sold, currently have a successful Etsy shop and just started going back to school to become a general contractor to remodel homes (I’ve already flipped a home with no schooling). But I always felt so much shame for my crazy dreams and cockiness. I just believe in my abilities and now am looking for what will fulfill me most in life. Thank you for sharing this video! It made me feel less alone. 💛

Please, do share the script-writing process! Cannot wait to hear about it (including David's perspective), I'm sure you'll succeed!

Becoming a professor in digital discourse was my "fashion week". I finished my PhD last year completely burnt out and am currently looking for a new silly unrealistic dream to work towards! 😄

I’m only 20 so this advice can be taken with a grain of salt, but people who have gone around nursing homes asking the elderly what regrets they had came up with these answers as some of the most common answers from the elderly; Wished they pursued their dreams regardless of what others thought or their own fears. Wish they were less harsh on themselves. I think screen writing is amazing! ❤

Having read your novel, and having loved David's home tours, i would say go for it guys! I truelly believe you guys could create a masterpiece!

Why not, what do you have to lose? Try the screenwriting & you'll find out sooner or later just like everything else what you think. Your dreams aren't stupid, just dreams. As an artist hoping to sell paintings for a lot of money, I can totally relate. :)

My day always improves when there's a new Jenny Mustard video out!

I like that she says “possible is enough for me” 😅 i’ll be living like that from now on

Why not? To everything there is a season. Now is the season to write.

I don't have such a tendency, my dreams are not that unrealistic, I guess I don't have a particularly ambitious nature. Some things that I wanted did require effort to achieve though and I'm proud of where I am right now. My next dream is to buy my own house with a garden where I can grow vegetables and keep chickens. Definitely not a crazy dream, kinda lame lol, but it's a big goal for me and I want to get there before I'm 35 to challenge myself 😊

It's all relative. I would love to own a home with a garden, but to me that's unrealistic.

I love you Jenny! You inspire me so much! My cocky dream was to be a theoretical physicist ❤ but just about to start my thesis I realized the lifestyle wasn’t for me. Now I want to be a streamer! I’m starting to make my career and being promoted by Twitch!!! I want to be an entertainer! The good wholesome kind of gaming influencer that I think the industry needs. I’m going for it!! I don’t know if I’ll make it. But I need to try!!!! I wish you all dreamers the best… and for those of you that still are on the fence, for you I wish big sweet dreams 😊✨💖

You and David working on screenwriting together would be perfect. I cannot imagine another better venture for you, an amazing writier, with David, a film enthusiast. Best of luck and keep us posted on your journey! So for my own silly dream, as an interior designer, I would love to buy some land and build a series of houses for my friends and we can live on a co-op, grow our own vegetables, have a creative and self sustaining commuinity. That's not that out of line, right? ;D

I love this community idea! Friends + gardens, what more could you ask for? :D

Definitely you two have all you need to realize this dream of yours - I'll be happy to follow its development!

I always enjoy your content but today I NEEDED it. Thank you. Now to return the favour: yes! Do it. I am a Nova Scotian (Canada) transplant to Detroit. I work in healthcare and five years ago started a KZread channel. It has a steep learning curve and I thoroughly enjoy learning new skill to make my content better. Two things I thought about for you to consider 1) a movie: Friends With Money, 2006 (2) a podcast: Happier in Hollywood. Thank you again for your hard work and the Milanote link

This was so encouraging to hear! My dream used to be becoming a dancer and famous choreographer but after going through dance education I realized that the insane amount of physical labour simply is not for me. Like you, I prefer working on a nice chair with a cup of tea:) My new crazy dream is to be the director of a large dance company and I will continue to be cocky and believe I can do it!

I'm an artist that works with metal. I've already been so lucky to have my work in shows in my province within Canada, and extremely lucky to have been in 2 shows in the Yorkville Village of Toronto, the largest city of Canada. My new "stupid" dream is to exhibit my work in either New York, L.A. or in London, England. I'm very determined to make this happen ❤️❤️❤️

I would love to see a screenplay written by you two. Something so special and unique about your channel. Your honesty and simplicity ❤

My life has been very rocky and complicated but at 48 I still have some dreams even though I don't see how I could make them come true. I'd love to move to Japan, but not to Tokyo; my dream is the Japanese countryside. If English was my native language my chances of getting working visa would be much higher but since I'm not an Anglophone and my academic degree is useless in Japan I don't think I will ever be able to move there permanently. English speakers usually start as teachers in language schools even though many of them eventually change jobs. A few people in their 50s who moved to Japan encouraged me to be brave and just go for it, but they usually forgot to add details such as that they came to Japan with their spouses who had contracts with Japanese companies. It's clearly unrealistic for me to even consider the move, but I can't seem to get over it. I'll be moving abroad next year anyway as I desperately need to start my life from scratch somewhere else. I've been thinking of England or Japan. England is where I left my heart 8 years ago and I can't forgive myself for ever going back to Poland, so in my dreams I'm torn between England and Japan. I might be nearing 50 but I can assure you, hope dies last.

Wishing you the best of luck with your screenplay. Screenwriting also used to be a dream of mine, but now I don’t know if I even have a dream. Unfortunately, I’ve come across some shockingly bad screenplays and I feel like even if your screenplay theoretically wouldn’t be perfect, it would still have a solid amount of quality.

My guy response is that you should absolutely go for writing! There’s very little in the way of that. I think it’s worth taking time to identify if you want to produce those scripts or just write them, but that can come later

I want to work full time as a drama therapist!!!! Same dream since 15 years old

Knowing your love of film - and that of David's as well - and how deeply you think about film, as well as your love of narrative and story I think you and David would do very well as screenwriters - but then again it feels like a lot of the time it seems like it's all about getting your work in front of the right people. So I wish you both luck :)

Also a film buff here I've been reading scripts and analysing films for a while now (5 years ?) and I've realized that its a medium that takes a lot of "time" to become great at sure you can write a crappy script and may still be able to sell it but thats beginners luck and it will run out sooner or later. But if you learn to write great scripts I've read so often that it'll get picked up and will be made into a film regardless of the obstacles that you may encounter along the way. To write a great script you have to know the form and once you know the form you need to know what to prepare to begin planning your script and to actually write it well with realistic dialogue and good flow I guess you'll have to keep on writing to see if you've got that zest. Apart from the general form of three acts there're more settle components that make up a good story that keep the rhythm consistent like a good music there's a rhythm in story telling too ! and for those details I haven't seen it anywhere explained you'll just have to keep on reading good scripts and watching good films to learn to incorporate those finer details. And last but not least just be aware that it could take "years" and you may not reach the destination. Thats been my experience thus far. Good luck!

Best idea you guys have had! You’d be perfect for writing screenplays-a perfect marriage of your skills and passions!

Yup! You two as a team have all the necessary qualifications...so go for it. My take is do your research, and savor the process as that suits you best.

My newest dream is to have that tweed blazer and the cream bike shorts to go with it. Oh my.

It is good that you have these ideas and goals. I would love to be a decluttering consultant and maybe even one day an interior decorator/designer (possibly). I am a certified life coach in carbon footprint reduction but that scares people off for some reason (since people don't understand what it means). Since I've been a minimalist nearly 18 years and I love helping people declutter, I am starting at this part of the dream. I'm in research mode right now and planning to make the business in time. I had my own photography business for a while but there are loads of other photographers who started businesses afterwards (including one of my cousins who is really very good at it) that I am glad it is just my hobby now.

Sreenwriting, why not!!! Go for it.❤

"Everything is possible!" I absolutely believe in you!

Thought you were gonna move to Tokyo! But "yes" to screenplays🎉

screen plays - YYUUUSSS! was my immediate thought!X

I LOVE the idea!!! Go for it

Ooh, we have the same white IKEA candleholders 😊

Screenplay Written by The Mustards!!! You two definitely need to do this!!!!!! ❤

I'd love to see you write scripts! I definitely recommend reading a bunch of them, there are many that are available online, and some even as books (I think Fleabag is a great example), also interviews with screenwriters are a great step and a few masterclasses on it. Besides that I think you've already got all the talent, it's just a matter of directing it towards that. My wild dream would be to write novels, but maybe also swim with orcas?

I find this so inspiring. I think something I struggle with is that I’ve never had that specific *thing* like I see so many others have. My mom is a teacher, my dad is an engineer, my sister is a scientist. Of course they have hobbies but they always kind of knew what they wanted to pursue. I feel so all over the place and feel pulled in too many directions. I think what’s helping me is realizing I can do it all, just not all at the same time. I can focus on one career or dream or whatever for a season of my life, whether that’s months or years, and then move on. AND I can simply enjoy casual hobbies too, not everything needs to be monetized. I don’t need to be a professional dancer anymore, I can just take a class once in a while, perform even less often, and that’s okay. I don’t need to dedicate my life to being a yoga instructor, but I do enjoy practicing it and am certified if I ever want to go back to it. I’m going back to uni now at 27 because I want to!!

Write OK DAYS as script! For Sofia Coppola or the Coen Brothers. I loved your book

Omg!! just starting to write my first movie script and this Milanote sponsorship couldn´t have come at a better time! Thanks for spreading the word Jenny!

In my opinion, your new venture sounds completely realistic. I’d say go for it! I’ve been working on two ideas for novels… but I keep coming back to one of the ideas, and my intuition is telling me that it should be written as a screenplay… I know nothing about writing a screenplay but I trust my intuition. I’ve been back to university three times in my life, each time in a different field, so if I can do that, I can certainly learn to write a screenplay! We are all glued to our screens these days, so there’s a huge need for screenplays. Trust your intuition, and you will succeed… NOT a crazy idea at all!

Loooved your novel and I so miss Mustardia ... so this is the best news ever. Can't wait for more details :)

If anyone can pursue such a dream I think it's you, you have drive, creativity and hopefully you'll get a pinch of luck that will bring you success.

It’s an absolute yes for me, go for it guys ❤

I was a screenwriting student. I found that I couldn't come up with something fresh enough. My ideas weren't BIG enough. So I recommend - be over the top.

Go Jenny Go.....of course you can, sky is the limit ;)

Excellent idea, plus it’s something you can work at together.

Absolutely! Go for it!

I am the same with "unrealistic" dreams. :) But it feels this is the only thing that would motivate me. To believe it is out there. I want to become a popstar. Like Lady Gaga but in my version. :)

Thanks Jenny Mustard!

Absolutely wonderful

I think exploring screenplays is more than a good idea. If it goes bust, the journey will still be a great adventure in itself. :)

Excellent idea! Would love to see good comedy, light feel good movies.

I think you be great together doing this new plan. You’ve Got this

Yes, yes, yes!! Of COURSE YOU HAVE TO!!! This video has definitely made me think about my own stupid dreams. And also a lot more compassionate about all the other 100 businesses ideas and creative projects that never happened. Right now, one of my biggest dreams is to write and illustrate my own children book based on my very own fictional world I am in the process of creating. It sounds silly but wonderful😍 Goodluck with this new and exciting project Jenny and David🤗🌸🥹🌷

You guys should definitely do this!!!

Yes, do it. I'll watch it for sure ❤

You love films, you watch lots of films--step one--check! Just as extensive reading was essential to writing your novel, watching movies analytically is critical to writing a screenplay.

I’m taking a screenplay writing class now. Please do it. Can’t wait to see❤

It's a great idea. I can totally imagine that you'll be successful.

Thank you for this video! I definitely needed an injection of cockiness to get back to writing my screenplay. I've been working in the Canadian film industry for about 7 years now. Directing is the goal, and screenwriting is a path I'm taking to it. I've been trying to get out of my own way for a while now, and I appreciate your wild dreams and your accomplishments! It helps me continue to dream and persevere. Write your screenplay! You already have all the tools your need: strong work ethic, inspiration, an understanding of the trials and tribulations of the creative process, and a unique perspective on life. My advice is to not overthink it! Like Jenny said, follow your inner child to create and the rest will come. The hardest part for me would be to sell the thing or working other creatives to make the film itself. Pushing your script and making compromises to have it actually get made. However, I'm sure with the network you already have, you'll get your film made with minimal sweat on your brows. Félicitations and please keep us updated on your journey :)

Love your content Jenny! I've been watching your videos for YEARS and never get bored. You are very pleasant to listen to, and very inspiring! Also, I loved the head pat you gave to David, very cute.😹

GO FOR IT!^^v GOOD LUCK

I think you can do everything you want. You have such a drive and passion, and you are realistic too. I think you are a mix of a curious child and a grown up systematic person in one! And that’s great 👏💕

it sounds like a perfect adventure for you and David 🤓 looking forward to that poster!

You know, the place I would start, if I were seriously going to write a film, would be to adapt the novel I had written already. :) OKAY DAYS would make an interesting movie, or maybe a miniseries. My stupid dream is to see the novel I'm working on a) finished and b) published. And, okay, c) adapted into a screenplay, but it would take a lot of cutting. ;)

All the possibilities are possible :)

After a while with my freethinker's blog, I find writing one of the most beautiful and intellectually reach activities.:)

Yes yes yes! This is a fantastic idea, not a stupid one. I believe in you guys !!

If it's David's dream to be a screenwriter and the dream is persistent I don't see why he shouldn't start making research and slowly (but surely) move in that direction. Of course it will take time and he may be rejected many a time, but if he doesn't try he will never know. It's not the type of career that requires moving to the other side of the world or a ridiculous amount of money. It's all about lots of research, lots of practice and making the right contacts. He doesn't lose anything if he tries.

love it 🍋i want to space travel, i feel its possible

My stupid dream is...seeing my small youtube channel growing more and more!it's my tiny secret garden,my creative shelter in my academic boring life

My opinion to your dream/idea: INSPIRING ♥

I support you!! Go for it! And for myself..... I'm honestly lost in life hyahayahaua..... just living day by day...... waiting for something to inspire me.... While doing not much about it.... #cry I'm super super stressed about this actually On how to "get things together" in my life, you know.... How to "snap out of it" and actually do something meaningful.......... Sigh

COOL - 😎 my first reaction. Go for it girl 😀 🎉🥂🍾

I'd love to go to London or Edinburgh to do my post doctorate, and then stay there to teach at a university!!

My wild dream was to become a film producer. After years of hard work I'm happy to say that I get to make films every single day as my job! It'd say go for the screenwriting. It's a fun process and not an expensive one. Once you want to get your screenplay produced/financed it gets expensive but no worries that's the producer' job !😉

My stupid dream was becoming an engineering manager) and I recently did. Balerina ship has also said for me with 30+ and no appropriate genetics (although compley different topic on the beauty standars in ballet). Another cocky dream is to do triathlons and one day half-ironmen. 90+ group tennis player is another one. Doctor or psychotherapist. Biologist. Writing a book completes the list)

Try Everything!

You are a delight, as always. I am painfully "mature" as you say and much to realistic (apparently ;) ). I definitely need to inject a little dreaming into my life.

I love crazy, big, audacious dreams! :) Mine is writing a novel too :) Definitely going to check out Milanote, thanks for the recommendation!

My crazy dream is to be a successful KZreadr (like you) and to be able to support myself, my husband and my stepdaughter. I always day dream of owning a cute little forever home that I will decorate like a farmhouse and keep chickens in the back of 💖 I am painfully shy and I am absolutely terrified but deep down I do believe it's possible.

What about writing the film adaptation for your own book?

My stupid dream is that I truly belive I can become a doctor now (starting at 25y and already graduated in journalism). I’m going after that now 😅 but part of me still thinks I’m crazy for dropping everything else and pursuing a new dream

Hello Multipotentialists ❤❤❤

Do it😍💪🏼

❤️❤️❤️

There's almost nothing I dislike more than "know your place" people. Eww. Do what speaks to you. The idea that you're born exactly where you're supposed to end up is the silly thing!

Gambatte yo! :D My dream? To move to Paris and own a cozy apartment with the business that I'm growing. :)

my silly dream is to have an art gallery with my own art works 🎏

Absolutely wonderful
