THE AMPERSAND The Feb 1, 2018 edition of The Ampersand certainly got your attention.
To set the context, here’s an cxcerpt from Swing and a Miss:
To me, pitching is like loosening the lid on a jar; it doesn’t feel like you’re making progress with each attempt and, practically speaking, you’re not. But eventually, pop, you break through. You weren’t actually loosening the jar prior to breaking through for a lid is either on or off, a binary proposition like winning or losing; you simply found a better grip, a different angle and a little more strength. Simply not opening the jar, however, is never an option. That’s what’s great about aspiration; it forces you to try, to figure stuff out and, eventually, to succeed.
