Inspirational Quotes from Transformers

Now I don’t care what anybody thinks, Transformers was one of the coolest movies ever, especially to a guy who used to own all of them as a kid and at times, believed himself to be one. I was a huge Transformers fan. Good against evil, you know, it was good stuff.

Now, once again, I love the lines they feed us in some of these movies. If you pay attention and listen closely, nearly every movie uses a principle of personal development or inspiration for their punch lines. Here is an example of one in Transformers:

Simple yet profound right? Basically, victory requires effort. Believe it or not, regardless of what home based business you choose to pursue, this is the biggest reason for failure. People think they can get something for nothing. You must give before you get. Give effort, consistently, then you get consistently.

Now, the the punch line of the movie that inspired me the most, was towards the beginning, when they were faced with the choice of getting into the car/transformer:

Sam Witwicky: “He wants us to get in the car.”
Mikaela(Megan Fox): [laughing nervously] “And go where?”
Sam Witwicky: “Fifty years from now, when you’re looking back at your life, don’t you want to be able to say you had the guts to get in the car?”

Needless to say, they got into the car and chose to take part in something greater than themselves. By doing so, they had a shot, one opportunity, to be great themselves.

How many times will you be faced with that one shot to make something happen in your life? How many opportunities does one person get to become great?

When faced with that decision, don’t treat it lightly. Successful people make decisions quickly and seldom change those decisions. Sometimes those decisions can come and go before you realize what happened. When your shot comes, act on it out of ambition instead of fear, and become great! Fifty years from now, you can look back on your life with full regret or no regret. It doesn’t take a lifetime of passing up opportunity after opportunity to be full of regret. It just takes one time, because it will haunt you for eternity.

To answer Mikaela’s question, “And go where?” Wherever you decide. The Sky Is The Limit!
