An Opus: “The most grandiose and memorable composition of a composer’s life and legacy.”

Recently, I had the opportunity to view Douglas Vermeeren's film, The Opus: From Vision, To Plan, To Performance. I found the story line trite and the acting mediocre, but the premise and the promise of the film are so overwhelmingly compelling that one can overlook the film's deficits. We are all engaged, through the living of our lives, in producing a grand Opus. We can choose to perform with passion, grace, and perfection or we may choose instead to pursue our individual Opus with less than stellar results. Tis the season to be thinking about the coming year and how we will preform in both our business and personal relationships. Will we dedicate ourselves to performing the most memorable composition of our lives or settle instead for mediocrity? How will others view our efforts? Will they be impressed with our performance or will they conclude that we fell short of our potential? The choice is ours. Will you make 2009 the year of your Opus?
