Bonnie, however, loves Forky and sees him as her toy for entertainment and sharing her affection.
#TO INFINITY AND MOVIE#
It takes much of the movie for him to understand that he brings value to others. He believes he belongs in the trash and is not supposed to be used as a toy. He is actually a plastic spork that Bonnie (the little girl) created as a new toy. You have to go get it and make it happen.ģ) You are not trash! One of the main characters in this latest sequel revolves around a character who goes by the name “Forky”. That new job, new career, or dream company you seek have won’t simply come to you. If we don’t get up and off the shelf, we won’t be discovered by those who can use our gifts in a different way. The same goes for so many of us who want to make a change. If an old toy wasn’t getting up and getting off the shelf, they would never be discovered and experience the love of a child. You may be a Lone Space Ranger for a while in the transition, but stay focused on where you are going.Ģ) Get off the shelf: Woody referred a lot to this message in the movie.
I had been loyal for over two decades, but I accepted that it was my time to do something for me. It’s ok to ponder those questions like: Will I even be successful if I move on? Will I find true happiness? What if I fail? In my case, the self-talk was coming from all directions. Knowing when it’s your time to step aside is also key in our growth. In truth, it is sometimes best for everyone that we move on because it gives others the chance to step up and become the leaders they were meant to be. I didn’t want to disappoint my team and let them down.
#TO INFINITY AND PROFESSIONAL#
I remember feeling so guilty on many occasions when I thought about moving on in my professional life after 21 years with a single company. Maybe it’s a company, maybe friendships, or perhaps it’s a career. I submit the idea that we actually stay too long in some cases. Sheriff Woody and his Space Ranger sidekick, Buzz Lightyear helped to nudge these thoughts forward through some of the key takeaway lessons played out in this most recent movie.ġ) It’s OK to move on: Many of us stay where we are for a long time. My family and I have watched each of the Toy Story movies and have loved every one of them in their own way.Īs I laughed through this most recent series and followed the storyline, I was reminded of a few lessons that I have lived through. This past weekend I took my boys to see Toy Story 4.
