I think one of the coolest movies around is the film The Untouchables with Sean Connery and Kevin Costner.
For me, it illustrates a great point.
In a scene where Kevin Costner bursts through the door of Connery’s apartment to find him shot, bloody and dying on the floor, Connery, with his last breath, grabs Costner. He looks him square in the eye and says boldly and firmly …
“What are you prepared to do?”
In that moment, Costner knew what he needed to do. He had focus, clarity, intention and drive. He was not deterred, successfully getting the bad guy despite several setbacks. He kept going, because he was prepared to do what was necessary to achieve his ultimate goal.
Action – So tell me…
Despite your setbacks, and with your focus, knowledge, drive, and intentions, how will you keep going?
What are YOU prepared to do?
