What I Learn From Shawshank Redemption Movie


While watching this movie, I learn something that made me think about success. Every day most of us who have day jobs, go to work enslave by our duties. Enslaves by punching that daily clock.


The truth is most of us refuse to believe we're imprisoned, we sit at our desk and work long countless hours remain prisoners for the rest of our lives. I began thinking about this movie and how it affect our lives today.


In this movie Andy Dufrene received two consecutive life sentences at the Shawshank State Penitentiary, Convicted of murdering his wife and her lover based on circumstantial evidence. Andy finds himself enslave by a brand new world and brand new rules. The warden loves crushing hope out of the prisoners. New Inmates faces cruelty the movement they step in Shawshank. Except Andy "he had hope. Andy had every opportunity to give up and give in, he didn't allow his circumstances to destroy his hope. He continued to survive and thrive mainly off the secret only he knew.


Andy" There's a small place inside of us they never lock away and that place called Hope.


Here is a place call hope " wealthy affiliate and if you want an escape plan then you have to admit that you are a prisoner. If you still in denial then this can't help you. But if you want to escape your day job, then there's hope for you to enter into your dream job.


What did I learn from Shawshank Redemption? I put myself in that cell right along with Andy having the doors slammed behind me and with people (the warden) crushing my chances of hope of ever escaping of a life sentence. Years enslaves by my job working and long hours' with no chance of freedom. I was reminded of the words Andy said: "You only have two choices "get busy living or "get busy dying". I'm choosing hope and I'm getting busy living,
I'm planning my escape.
I'm planning my freedom.
Hope is always inside me .

Just a thought of day"
