Master Shifu wanted Po to realize what his role in the world was about, what he was born for and who he was meant to be. When all these quotes come together, we get to learn an important message that we as humans must never compare ourselves to others, not even if we are trying to be “perfect”, for there is no true perfection and there is always a chance to improve. These all are powerful quotes in their own way. “I’m not teaching you how to be me, I’m teaching you how to be you” “Never underestimate the power of a dramatic entrance.” “Your real strength comes from being your best you.” “There is always something more to learn, even for a master.” “Time is just an illusion, there is only the now.” “If you only do what you can, You will never be more than you are now.” “Before the battle of the fist, comes the battle of the mind.” “When will you realize? The more you take, the less you have.” The learning’s are such that we can easily apply them in our own lives and motivate their teams to do their best.
The beauty of Kung Fu Panda (3) not only lies in its story but also gives clear messages and learnings to its viewers especially if you are working in a corporate in the capacity of a People Manager through its characters Master Oogway, Master Shifu and of course from Po. It’s no secret that most cartoon films have an underlying message – something that teaches the children and adults a great life lesson alike.
