What Hinders You?

Overcome obstacles to achieve. 

"Play a lot." The first key to playing is to play. At first, you won't be skilled enough, athletic enough, experienced enough. Play withers obstacles. 

Author David Mamet has "what hinders you?" inscribed on the back of a new watch. Sometimes people need reminders about their restraints. Having a mirror is easier. 

"Every story is about someone searching for something." Every season teams navigate a journey seeking the brass ring. 

Mamet says, "I wish" foretells failure, versus "I will" or "I intend." Yoda clarifies. 

Just as writers find answers to free the hero from setbacks, teams must figure it out when adversity strikes.

Lagniappe. "Keep the ball up."
