Play Ball !!!

My husband made a comment about batting averages yesterday. Apparently having a season over 300 is a great batting average. I was surprised and had to ask him about it to make sure I understood. If I got this right then if a batter makes a hit, not necessarily a home run or a triple or something awesome, just a hit, 3 out of every 10 times they're at bat, then they had a great season. Hmmm.....

Now when I choose to do somthing difficult or new, I expect myself to do great every time, or at least 9 out of 10. Can you relate? We think we should be able to do everything really well.

So what if I choose to use standards from baseball. Wow! I always have an amazing season! Seriously. Think about it. Even if you are doing new things, how often do you completely strike out? Probably not very often. Can you do better than 300?

Let's play ball!!!
