Shawshank Redemption is one of my favorite movies, possibly my most favorite. It really makes one think about patience and perseverance. Imagine waiting 20 years to make that break……..from whatever prison you are in. Plans, dreams, goals, its all possible……where do you want to go and how do you want to get there?
The big lesson from this movie is that sometimes we have to accept the circumstances that we are given, to a point. There is survival in the short term, but no matter what don’t let your dream die. Maybe you’ll have to crawl thru 300 yards of sh&t like Andy had to, but all that pain, life experience, and sacrifice could pay off when you are enjoying your little slice of paradise!
I think of my life, especially the fact that I have been marketing for quite a long time, yet have not reached the Million Level. I need to reflect on my success but also failures and reach into new discomfort zones to break thru on my promise of 5000-10000 per month. I have a plan to do it, come join me HERE
This certainly puts our day to day struggle of achieving our goals into perspective.
A great movie, that proves no matter how hard the struggle, through perseverance you can still achieve your goal.
If you want to.. and know you can achieve something, then being patient and keeping your eye on the prize is key!
