Jerry Maguire
Our movie begins with a man named Jerry Maguire. An incredibly successful sports agent. Many clients, fiancé, good pay, and a big beautiful office. Until one night, in a drunken haze he starts to question his purpose. Why is he here, whats the point, is there something better? He has a moral epiphany and writes all of his thoughts down into a small memo that he prints off and ships off to his coworkers the next day. The sudden manifestation of his conscious abruptly gets him fired. He loses his fiance, his job, everything but one client. He takes that client and starts a 'project' with the only other person who believes in him. He will put his morals to the test trying to rebuild what he once had.
The lessons I took away from this movie are that to be successful you don’t have to be the biggest company. You don’t have to have the largest amount of employees or the most money. When Jerry has this epiphany he realized that yes, he may have been getting pain a lot and had a nice comfy job but he was hurting people in the process. He decided that his morals were more important than his pride and left to create something better. It was small but it was successful, and he helped people and helped himself in the process. …show more content…

Maguire is considered and leader because he pursued something he believed in and never gave up on it. Even when things got very sticky and it looked like things weren’t going to turn out the best he still stuck around to the very end. And everything worked out for him. He wasn’t the biggest business but he stuck by his morals, took a risk and tried something new and never gave up. That’s what makes him a true
