Tip#561: The Benefits of a Reboot – The Amazing Spider-Man

Reboot: To turn (a computer or operating system) off and then on again; restart

Have you ever had problems with your computer and discovered that the only way to fix it was to turn it off and then restart? If so then you know the benefits of the term "reboot" which can also be applied to areas of your life like career, business, lifestyles and even beliefs. Reboot is now a trend in Hollywood for re-vitalizing movie franchises or characters.

The Dark Knight trilogy starring Christian Bale is a successful example of rebooting the previous Batman series. And the two Sherlock Holmes movies starring Robert Downey Jr. is a reboot or re-imagining of a classic literary character. I am open to movie reboots and yet there was one recent film release I was not enthusiastic about UNTIL I went to see it.

The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)

The movie The Amazing Spider-Man is a reboot of the Spider-Man film franchise starring Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker/Spider-Man. The basic premise is intact where the teenager is bitten by a radioactive spider and becomes a superhero. His girlfriend this time is Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone) and the villain is The Lizard/Dr. Curt Connors (Rhys Ifans).

I loved the first series starring Tobey Maguire so it was a challenge to accept another actor AND another perspective of the Spider-Man story so soon after the Sam Raimi directed trilogy. I gave it a chance and was very surprised that I enjoyed the new movie with its many motivational messages. What I loved most was the romantic relationship between Peter And Gwen. Their on-screen chemistry is so strong that it was cool to learn that (as of this writing) they became a couple in real-life!

Motivating movie quotes:

"You owe the world your gifts. You just have to figure out how to use them."

"I had a professor once who liked to tell his students that there are only 10 different plots in all of fiction. Well I’m here to tell you he was wrong. There is only one… Who am I?"

We all get stuck someplace in our lives and careers. And sometimes the only way to get unstuck is to reboot our selves, to restart our inner operating systems. Take a lesson from movie reboots where the characters remain the same and yet their stories are re-invented or re-imagined. Reboot your life and you will discover a FRESH perspective of your path to follow!
