Growing up can be tough, and it’s unfortunately all too easy to lose sight of your dreams. If you need a dose of inspiration and a trip down nostalgia lane, watch this “When I Grow Up” short film from The Academy.

When I Grow Up from The Academy.

Creator Colin Hesterly calls it a “small look into [his] childhood dreams”, and I’m confident that a lot of us can relate.

Okay, now that you’ve got your inspiration for the day, go back into the world and be productive.
