Thirsty for Consistent, Forward Movement

Have you ever watched the animated movie, Finding Nemo. It's a tragic, yet comical little story that centers around a father fish, Marlin who, while still grieving the loss of his wife and all but one of his unborn guppies ends up on a frightful journey to try to rescue his only living offspring, Nemo, after a fishing boat captured him in a net. As a result of his previous loss, this father fish had attached himself to fear the way a newborn baby attaches herself to her milk bottle. Still, tragedy struck again and Marlin found himself in a situation that forced him to decide whether to turn back or press forward. He had to decide whether he was going to go back home and grieve the loss of his only son or allow his fears to be transformed into the courage he needed to press forward and find him. Along the way, he became acquainted with Dory, an imperfect, forgetful, yet lovely blue fish who became Marlin's guide and encourager. At one point, Dory sang, just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. As annoying as Dory's little jingle was to him, it succeeded in inspiring Marlin to forget the past and press towards the possibilities of the future. Dory motivated Marlin to keep moving consistently forward.

Prior to meeting Dory, Marlin was lost and afraid. He was frustrated and confused. He frantically searched for what was  most valuable to him, but he needed direction and he needed to know he wasn't alone. Marlin didn't know what to do or where to go until Dory offered her knowledge and talents to the mission. Together, they survived the ups and downs of the journey. They incurred scars, and faced uncertainties and setbacks, but guess what? As a team, they met their goal. They found Nemo. In the end, the father and son were reunited with a stronger bond and a brand new friend!

Similar to Marlin, some of you may be stuck in the middle, trying to decide whether to stop hoping for a better financial reality or to use your fears to propel you into the courage you need to press forward and swim, swim, swim your way into financial freedom. Well, I am here to be your personal, blog-writing, Dory. I am here to be a guide and an encourager who has knowledge and talents to offer. I am here to help you to accomplish your mission, and together you and I will face the ups and downs that are sure to present themselves as you endeavor to move consistently forward until you have endured every setback and conquered every fear that has been causing financial freedom to elude you. And who knows, perhaps we'll become friends along the way.
