In the words of veterans Hip Hop legend Naz, \u201cMy life is like a movie, the good guy wins and the bad guy looses\u201d<\/p>\n
Finding inspiration and motivation in a movie is easy. You know the deal, it\u2019s an old age formula, think about it this way. Good parents tell their children inspirational motivational and uplifting stories. Planting seeds to shape the Childs mind and character. A good story informs, inspires and entertains. All good stories has a moral code or a lesson to take home, this assists in the child growth, and this is equally true for adults.<\/p>\n
How to look for a good movie\/story<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Me personal, I\u2019m a child of the 80s, It was a great time for inspirational \/ motivational movie\u2019s and wonderful stories, Star War’s, Star Trek, The Never Ending Story, Superman etc. My parents shielded us form the horror movies such as Freddy, Jason, hell riser, Friday 13. My mother would say it serves us know use, inviting negative images into our mind, so our house was horror movie free.<\/p>\n So my first lessons was<\/strong> – Don\u2019t polluting your mind with negative movies\/stories<\/p>\n My father’s has always been a fun of Kong fu and action movies. I think these kind of movies fuel the one man can take on the world attitude. For me action movies are about…<\/p>\n Action movie\u2019s – The one man take’s on the world theme<\/p>\n In the 80s action movie\u2019s inspired the one man can change the world mentality. Maybe it was good old fashion American propaganda aimed at inspiring the gun hoe hero\/ warrior in their troops. I’m a man of peace but I\u2019m sure when it comes to actions movies, the story line give\u2019s the troops a sense of divine purpose, a kind of holly mission.<\/p>\n On a positive note, I think inspiration can be taken form these movies and applied to the challenges of every day life.<\/p>\n What we can take from these movies is that self motivation come’s form within you, you have to dig deep, work hard , work smart, you have to be the kind of person who takes no shit and give’s no shit (please excuse my French). I WAS INSPIRED by RAMBO, COMMANDO, one man vs a thousand. This is a kind of metaphor for self determination.<\/p>\n When it came to the rocky movies, I felt like I was in the ring, I was with rocky form the beginning to the end. A rookie fighter, undisciplined, no causes, no vision, unfocused. Sight given to him by the mentor. The vision of the mentor ignited young Rocky\u2019s fire. The eye of the tiger was now open.<\/p>\n Walking in the hero shoes<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n We was with rocky though all his training, running though the streets\u2019. We felt\/lived his victory, when he won his first fight, We felt\/lived his pain when he lost a fight. when he picked his self up and went back to training, We was inspired by his hope and determination. Through all of this the eye of the tiger was born in millions and millions more to come, this is the power of a good movie, to inform, inspire or uplift.<\/p>\n The key point to remember about these movies is that<\/p>\n In this movie, our young hero Leroy searches for the \u201cmaster\u201d to obtain the final level of martial arts mastery known as The Glow? \u2026Along the way he fights an evil martial arts expert. While getting his ass kick, the bad guy dunks our hero Leroy\u2019s head in a barrel of water and say\u2019s these unforgettable words \u201cWHO\u2019S THE MASTER\u201d\u2026.<\/p>\n While under water\u2026<\/p>\n Leroy has a flashback of all his experience\u2019s, the words of his teacher and friends, people he\u2019s met on his journey, this triggers a revelation in our hero Leroy\u2026\u00a0The bad guy again says \u201cWHO\u2019S THE MASTER \u201d as he attempts to strike our hero a deadly blow<\/p>\n Our hero Leroy – intercept the blow and grabs hold of the bad guy and say\u2019s these words of conviction…<\/p>\n “I\u2019M THE MASTER\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAt that moment the Hero\u2019s body lights up – He get the glow and then kicks the bad guy\u2019s ass<\/p>\n What did I learn?<\/strong><\/p>\n Hollywood movies were not the only place to find Inspiration, you can learn from cartoons. Do you remember Transformer the movie, when Optimus prime \u00a0he jumped out of the space shuttle to face the Decepticons\u00a0and defend Autobot\u00a0head quarter. His famous last words \u201cuntill all are one\u201d He defeated megatron but lost his own life in the process.<\/p>\n Transformer’s a cartoon, but the message behind it was real. Life can be like war but we live for peace. Optmas prime defined what it means to be a leader by his…<\/p>\n Here’s something\u2019s that I took home form our hero optimus prime\u2026<\/p>\n First of all, in the bin with any form of entertainment that doe\u2019s not inspire inform or uplift.\u00a0It all boils down to Managing your mood’s and emotions<\/strong>. Stay clear of entertainment that are of a low vibrational quality. Programmes or movies that basically depress you or leave you feeling low and uninspired.<\/p>\n What is the open source you analogy? Think of it this way, your brain is like a peace of computer hardware and the mind is the open source software.<\/p>\n Open source is a programming term which refers to any program whose source code is made available for use or modification. The human mind is a bit like an open source programme. We are highly influenced by our environment.<\/p>\n In a nut shall, because the mind is like an open source programme the brain software can be influenced from the out side. This can work to our advantage when we exercise care and control over what people, media and place\u2019s you choose to be influenced by.<\/p>\n Be inspired; be informed. Use the energy of the movies to fuel your inner drive and brighten your inner world.<\/p>\n I heard somewhere that, Life is a movie, you are the star, all you need to do is choose your role and be you. Feed your mind with positive thing\u2019s that up lift, inform and inspire. The power of synergism will do the rest.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s some fun inspirational movie music to get you dancing.<\/p>\n Ollie and Jerry – There’s No Stopping Us<\/a><\/p>\n Rocky Music Video-Eye of the Tiger<\/a><\/p>\n Rocky ‘The Italian Stallion’ Balboa<\/a><\/p>\n ……………………….<\/p>\n Related posts<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In the words of veterans Hip Hop legend Naz, \u201cMy life is like a movie, the good guy wins and the bad guy looses\u201d How to look for a good movie\/story Finding inspiration and motivation […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[20,19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2359","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-motivation","category-personal-development"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p46H4F-C3","jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mpdspace.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2359","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mpdspace.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mpdspace.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mpdspace.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mpdspace.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2359"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/www.mpdspace.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2359\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2629,"href":"https:\/\/www.mpdspace.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2359\/revisions\/2629"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mpdspace.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2359"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mpdspace.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2359"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mpdspace.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2359"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
