Insights from the Silver Screen: Installment Two

TRUE GRIT has come back again with a vengeance, pun intended.  The Western classic has been reborn with a precocious protagonist and Jeff Bridges scooping up the redemptive role of Rooster Cogburn.

Insights abound, but one stands out regarding the power of intentionality.  In pursuing her father's killer, a young woman must continually overcome skepticism about her 1) motivation, 2) capabilities and 3) resources (as in, budget to underwrite the manhunt).

In every case and with each step, she keeps her eyes on the prize even through dark nights and semi-warm campfire beans.  She gains her results at the cost of limb, not life, as those she recruits prevail in large part because of her unrelenting passion.
