Glen Powell shares his grandfather's advice: the greatest gifts aren't in the plans, they're in the detours. He didn't get his original role in Top Gun, but what came instead exceeded his expectations. He argues that life's best scenes are the unplanned ones, the plot twists that test you.
No good story happens from things going right. My granddad always said this: the greatest gifts in life are not in the plans, they're in the detours. I have failed a lot more and a lot longer than I have succeeded. I didn't originally get the role in Top Gun that I auditioned for, and it's worked out better than I could have ever even imagined. So if you want your life to be a great story, when you go out there and things inevitably don't go according to plan, just remember, that's when your movie's plot is just getting interesting. That's when your protagonist is being tested. That's when the writers are working overtime to give the audience some nail-biting drama. Enjoy things not going according to plan. If you knew the ending, it wouldn't be worth a watch. What I always say is, if you aren't going to go out and do it, someone else is. So why not you?
