The PUSH

"You never know when one act, or one word 
of encouragement can change a life forever." 
~ Zig Ziglar 


"The Push", is a wonderful short story written by my co-author David McNally. The story inspired this book, (Even Eagles Need a Push) and the movie you're about to watch. It has only 182 words, but it captures the essence of encouragement in a way you'll never forget.

So sit back, turn up your speakers, and watch a beautiful 3 minute movie that will make your heart smile.

I used it as a reminder to everyone of you when doing this "do some good" project. You don't need think big to start your big ideas. Certainly, it pays if you do. But 千里之行, 始於足下 , the message is very clear, don't spend too much time in analysing the problem, start everywhere!

Some background info:
Harley Davidson:
The factory in which they worked was a 10 x 15-foot wooden shed with the words "Harley-Davidson Motor Company" crudely scrawled on the door.

It helps remind us to "slow down" (it takes some time to have your protrait drawn), it'll remind us to have the trust on people (you'd never know what it'll look like before it's finished), it'll remind us to be brave, confident about ourselves (because everyone on the street is watching), it'll remind us intimacy can be got from face-to-face contact...and so on...
