Chess

A chess grandmaster might calculate positions as deep as 15 moves ahead. Many scenarios, many alternatives.

While we like to be masters at the games we play, sometimes we forget that most of life isn’t played on the chess board.

Most often, our job is to do the next right thing. Not to prepare for every possible scenario, but to focus on the next step in the right direction.

And once we start moving, we realize that the board is always changing — often in ways we couldn’t have predicted.
