Kung Fu Panda on Agile, Scrum and the Illusion of Control

Kung Fu Panda on Agile

Oogway: That is bad news, if you do not believe that the dragon warrior can stop him.
Shifu: Panda ?! Master that panda is not a dragon warrior, he wasn’t even meant to be here ! It was an accident !
Oogway: There are no accidents.
Shifu: Ahhh, yes I know, you’d said that already, twice.
Oogway: Well, that was no accident either.
Shifu: Thrice.
Oogway: My dear friend, that panda will never fulfill his destiny nor yours, until you let go of the illusion of control.
Shifu: Illusion ?
Oogway: Yes, look at this tree Shifu. I cannot make it blossom when it suits me, or make it bear fruits before it’s time.
Shifu: But there are things we can control. I can control when the fruits will fall. And I can control where to plant the seed. That is no illusion Master.
Oogway: Ahhh yes, but no matter what you do, that seed it will grow into a peach tree, you may wish for an apple or an orange, but you will get a peach.
Shifu: But a peach cannot defeat Tai Lung !
Oogway: Maybe it can, if you are willing to guide it, to nurture it, to believe in it.
Shifu: But how ! How !? I need your help Master !
Oogway: No, you just need to believe. Promise me Shifu, promise me you will believe.
Shifu: I will try.
