#BeetlejuiceBeetlejuice is far more entertaining and fun than many of the legacy/sequels/whatever-the-hell-you-wanna-call-them films that have plagued our movie screens these past ten years. My review:

The Invisible Gorilla. You might be wondering why out of nowhere I am writing a post with such a weird title… Well it is the name of a short film. In this film, two teams pass a basketball. One team wears white shirts and the other wears black. Viewers are told to count the number of passes made by the white team and ignore the black team. Sounds simple, right? But here's the surprising part. Halfway through the film, a woman in a gorilla suit walks across the court, thumps her chest, and then leaves. She’s on screen for 9 seconds. Can you guess what’s astonishing about this film? Almost half of the viewers don’t notice the gorilla at all. They are so focused on counting the passes that they miss it entirely. They don’t realize the gorilla was there until they are told about it. This tells us something important about ourselves: Sometimes we are blind to the obvious. We are also blind to our own blindness. In our lives, we often repeat this mistake. We get so busy counting our problems that we miss the opportunities right in front of us. Take a moment today to look around. What are you missing while you’re focused on something else? P.S. Have you heard of this movie before? #Leadership #Opportunities #Focus #Mindset #MondayMotivation
