Sometimes the best inspirations for me is through movies… Rocky Balboa, the final chapter in the Rocky series, is the most inspirational and touching to me. 2 scenes stick out the most to me. The first scene is of Rocky talking about the pursuit of happiness.

Rocky Balboa: I appreciate that, but maybe you’re looking out for your interests just a little bit more. I mean you shouldn’t be asking people to come down here and pay the freight on something they paid, it still ain’t good enough, I mean you think that’s right? I mean maybe you’re doing your job but why you gotta stop me from doing mine? Cause if you’re willing to go through all the battling you got to go through to get where you want to get, who’s got the right to stop you? I mean maybe some of you guys got something you never finished, something you really want to do, something you never said to someone, something… and you’re told no, even after you paid your dues? Who’s got the right to tell you that, who? Nobody! It’s your right to listen to your gut, it ain’t nobody’s right to say no after you earned the right to be where you want to be and do what you want to do!… You know, the older I get the more things I gotta leave behind, that’s life. The only thing I’m asking you guys to leave on the table… is what’s right.
Me, I like to talk to friends and read inspirational words. Todays words of wisdom is by Marianne Williamson and used in the movie, Coach Carter. Our Deepest Fear.
