3 I want you to boil the incident down to two very specific things: your goal (what you wanted to do) and the obstacle (what stopped you from doing it that was nobody’s fault except your own).

Character is decision under pressure, and it cannot emerge without both pressure and decision (even if the decision is to avoid decision, as in the case of Hamlet).

Inner conflict is a phrase I shall return to, time and time again throughout this book. I believe it’s what creates great characters and, hence, parts great actors want to play, and also I believe it is what will generate the narrative for you and help you get to the end.
