The Shawshank Redemption Lesson
by
Richard Fenton & Andrea
Waltz
We
got lured into one of our favorite movies this past Sunday
afternoon… The Shawshank Redemption. Released 1994
and nominated for 7 Academy Awards.
Andy Dufresne is wrongly convicted and sent to Shawshank Prison for the
murder of his wife and her lover. Set in the
1940’s. There’s plenty of evil doers among both the
prisoners and the guards. The Warden even kills the only man that could
help prove Andy’s innocence. But there’s
a great friendship between Andy and ‘Red’ (played
by Morgan Freeman) and we get a wildly satisfying ending when Andy
actually digs his way out and escapes the prison to go live out his
days on a beach in Mexico.
Towards the end, Red explains: “All they found of him was a
muddy set of prison clothes, a bar of soap, and an old rock hammer,
damn near worn down to the nub. I remember thinking it would take a man
six hundred years to tunnel through the wall with it. Old Andy
did it in less than twenty."
Most of us never start things because we think it's going to take too
long! Too long for who? The 20 years is going to come and go... the
only question is, what will you have at the end of the 20 years to show
for it?
So start digging. Now. Even if it's just a little bit each day. The
time is going to pass and you'll be grateful you started when you did.
As the year comes to a close and a new one begins, remember
this little phrase: "One of these days is now."

"We
don't use that word "done," because we know what we have. I think once
you believe that strongly, the "no" is just more of an opportunity to
make it better."
