{Gumption … in the Spotlight}
(I got really passionate about this one – I even included 3 youTube videos for your viewing pleasure) Please view them all -

Little summary: counting backward – Watch ‘em:

Ultimate gumption – “Rocky Balboa”
Taking Action – “Walk the Line”
Make a decision – “You’ve Got Mail”

Cheers to guts, spunk and courage!

PS: It all begins inside with a desire to make things happen –
Are you feeling the gumption rhythm??

I AM.

The second stage of gumption - Knowing what you want and taking ACTION...
(Scene from "Walk the Line") ... I love how timid Johnny Cash is when he first starts performing. He stands at the mic and says "Hi... I'm Johnny Cash." As time goes by, that is not longer a timid statement! In fact, it makes him Johnny Cash. :) See the You Tube video above.

FEEL the gumption rhythm!! :) ....

Courage; Spunk; Guts

In my estimation, there are 3 stages of gumption. Let’s explore them!

1.
The beginning stage - This stage is the place where a person is just trying out their spunk, courage and guts. Below is an example of the beginning stages of gumption.
