(83) The coach and player lesson. One of the greatest lessons in my life came when I was kid, taking karate lessons. I was trying to figure out some move or something. I kept stopping and asking the instructor and myself, "Am I doing this right?" Finally, my instructor stopped me. He said, "You can't be the coach and the player at the same time."
Since then I've applied that lesson to just about everything in my life. My writing, my lectures, my work projects. It's hard to judge your own work until you've actually done the work.
