Everybody like a good baseball analogy. Ahem! I said, EVERYBODY likes a good baseball analogy.
Sometimes when I'm coaching I'll hear my clients say something that we both know isn't true or is some goofy or downright destructive thing they're considering that it keeps them from living like The Uncompromised. That goofy crap I call their 'scam'.
After we identify their scam a bit more clearly I'll suggest they add it to their ESPN highlight reel of cool moves they use to keep them where they are. From time to time, there is something uttered or something avoided that is so obvious, so ridiculous and unfortunately so destructive it is worthy of labeling a Grand Scam!
Mine used to be: I'm too young. Completely debilitating to be 29 years old and too young for... well anything I wanted to do. By the way, I had that until the day I figured that my scam was killing me and that in time I'd simply switch to, I'm too old.
Oh, I've had more and still have some...
What is your Grand Scam that aint nobody cheering for? ...at least not anybody you'd be proud to bring home to your mother.

ReplyDeleteThe tragedy is that most of my material comes from my own train wrecks.
Well, I've got plenty to blog about!
