Today's greatest story for business owners: I once played golf with two people I did not know but met when I showed up one day at a local course alone. On one green I had a long put but left it short. One of the other players, an airline pilot, said that when he played with his daughter, they fined each other one dollar when they left a put short of the hole. The theory behind this, he explained, was that by missing short instead of long, you never gave yourself a chance. You must give yourself a chance to succeed.
