Toy Story - Falling With Style

Sometimes in life, whether it is our business or personal life, it seems like everthing has gone wrong. The moving truck has left, our match got blown out, we're strapped to a rocket, and we're free falling toward the concrete. In these kind of situations we have really only two options. One, we can fall screaming to our doom. Two, we can spread our wings and, as Buzz Lightyear so elegantly put it, fall with style.

Falling with style requires that when we are stuck in the bottom of the knowledge funnel we have the courage to climb back to the top and jump back into it again. Buzz and Woody missed the moving truck where all their toy friends were. But when they were falling through the sky, they didn't set their sights on the truck. They looked forward to a bigger and better goal of being with Andy.

So when we find ourselves metephorically strapped to a rocket and falling through the air, we can spread our wings and aim for something better=Falling with style.
