Base hit. That is what we need here. A very intricate system of base hits as the outcome. It is not just the shoes, bat, glove, team, stadium or anything else you can think of. It is a base hit—lots of them. Fight for them. This at-bat pop-flied out. Not a base hit. I got back up and went after it again. I got on base. We lost the game. Dang it. I am headed to a coach in the off-season and slow-pitch softball batting cages to get training from someone who has success here. I need help getting on base. Then I will take care of the next issue in my softball game of fielding and throwing. Me & my team help get you on base. Base hits. Then get you around 2nd and home for closed deals. I got someone to help me get on base. Let me & my team help you. Watch #MoneyBall before our call. It will help.

🤔 Would you waste time teaching Randy Johnson to hit? NO. 🚫 Would you waste time teaching Barry Bonds to pitch? NO. 🚫 The bigger question... would you teach your people in your company how to do something outside of their area of genius or would you capitalize on their strengths?? 🤔 In business, just like in baseball, it's all about playing to your strengths. Why waste time trying to turn your ace pitcher into a slugger or your power hitter into a hurler? It's about recognizing what your team excels at and putting them in positions where they can shine. 💪 Empowering our people to do what they do best is how you hit it out of the park! ⚾️ #FckStrategy #EcommerceTips #ecommerce #DTC #Baseball

Over the weekend I took my daughter to a Bee's baseball game... Potentially for the last time... They are moving much farther southwest out near Daybreak after this season. I'm lazy... might just go north to the Raptors lol. Or we might end up getting a Major League team. Although I'm not a big sports guy, I've got a soft spot for baseball. It's uniquely American and steeped in tradition. As the below quote states it's a wonderful constant in a changing world. Great Life Lessons: -teamwork: You are often reliant on your teammates for you to score -adaptability: Game is constantly changing -Resilience: It's a game of more failures than successes, more strike outs than hits Any other life lessons you take from baseball? #ripJamesearljones #baseball
