Hitters don’t have much of an agenda other than, “swing at the good balls.”
No one blames the hitters when the pitcher has a hot hand and throws a no hitter.
Pitchers, on the other hand, decide what’s going to happen next.
Pitchers get to set the pace, outline the strategy, initiate instead of react.
When your job is in reaction mode, you’re allowing the outside world to decide what happens next.
You are freed from the hard work of setting an agenda. In exchange, you dance when the market says dance. “I did the best I could with what was thrown at me…”
Finding the guts to move up the ladder is hard.
When you decide to set the agenda and when you take control over your time and your effort, the responsibility for what happens next belongs to you.
