Finding Nemo

I liked the film because it was about taking risks and learning to let those you love take risks

Steve Jobs

Steve was a fan of Finding Nemo from Pixar (his other company). It’s not hard to see why.

This scene from Finding Nemo is where Nemo’s father loses his son and begins an impossible task.

The whole movie, really, is a perfect metaphor for how a lot of us feel when we have to tackle a new challenge, especially starting a new business.

In front of us is a huge ocean to cross. We can’t even see the faintest hint of our goal ahead. How the hell are we going to get through this?

With persistance and some help from others we eventually do.
