Why I'm not that much interested in modern entertainment much these days:

Back in the day the first two Spider-Man movies were my favourite. Because they actually had practical effects! Those movies had a real costume made. These days there is a costume but it is covered by cgi.
I also like the dark knight trilogy. It has real stunts and practical effects! There is some cgi in the movies I mentioned. I actually have the Batman Begins novel.
These days everything is cgi. Sometimes I question if there is action choreography or not. These days movies seem to be made not for fun, but to just have check marks to get to target audiences.

I've been thinking a lot about personal responsibility this morning and how important it is to take responsibility when you are not in alignment with your moral code. There are certain behaviors that we all fall prey to from time to time. When that happens, the thing that separates the men from the boys is taking personal responsibility and resolving to avoid the near occasion of that behavior.

Couple this code with a sacrificial attitude, and you have effectively transformed yourself into an uber growth machine. What are you willing to sacrifice today so that future you will be more comfortable and better poised to action toward further growth and development?

The connection between the two is this: you can be sacrificial but lack the desire to take personal responsibility and give yourself over to toxicity that rota you from the inside, which in turn stunts your growth.

Move with purpose. Calculate efficiently. And when you stumble, never fail to take responsibility for your actions.
