Lasso The Moon

One of my favorite holiday shows is It’s a Wonderful Life. The movie starring Jimmy Stewart as George Bailey has a message that transcends the holidays. Most of you are familiar with his character. He embraced life with an unbelievable zest. No matter what happened, he kept his dream to lasso the moon. Unfortunately “Old Man Potter” did not like to see him happy. Potter did everything in his power to crush George Bailey’s spirit. It took an angel and some good friends to help him.

“Old Man Potter” was richer and more powerful than George Bailey. As you pursue your dreams, you will run into people like “Potter”. They hate seeing people happy and are always negative. The “Potter” in your life could be a competitor, boss or even a family member. Like the character in the movie, the “Old Man Potter” in your life may not even play fair.

George Bailey was ready to give up on his dream and his life. Often we see people like “Potter” and they are bigger, better and richer than us. We use them as an excuse to give up. Never let “Old Man Potter” stop you from dreaming. There are many clients, customers, patients, business partners, suppliers, friends and family members who are waiting for your dreams to manifest. On your journey to living your dreams there will be giants. Some will look like “Old Man Potter”. Some will look like your best friend. Don’t give up on your dreams. You may not lasso the moon, but in your pursuit of the moon you may grab a star or two.
