Pirate Lesson

“Pirates of the Caribbean” has been a long Disneyland favorite of kids and adults alike. A number of years ago, Disney decided to make a movie based on the ride and it was an instant success.

One reason for its success was due to our life long love of the ride. A second reason was due to the fact that it was a great movie. One of my favorite lines from the movie was:

“Only two things matter in this world: what a man can do and what a man can’t do.”

Or in other words, there are things you have control of and others you do not. The lesson is to use what you can control, to influence, attain, or even control that which you cannot. This way you can concentrate your focus on what you can do something about and let the things that you have no control take care of themselves.

Or so says Captain Jack.
