I remember once reading an article that I think is pertinent to much of life. Politics, business, family, I think it is relevant to life in general. I think that perhaps with the upcoming election, we might all give some serious though as to how this pertains to our countries leaders, and office holders in general.
It pertained to a pool match where a lot was at stake, similar to what our country is facing today, a critical time.
Jeanette Lee, one of the top female pool players in the world was sizing up a relatively easy shot, but was very deliberate and taking a lot of time. She was asked why such an easy shot was taking so much time. Her answer, "I am determining where I want the cue ball six shots from now." She was not only concerned about her immediate easy shot, but how she wanted the table to look six shots from now. Not rushing in to an easy decision for now, but how she wanted the table to look in the future.
Don't make a decision on who to put in office, "because it is easy," contemplate the next four years, what steps will be necessary for us as a country to achieve our goals and to "run the table" to insure that we are the victors at the end of the game. Who has the best game, and can keep us from "getting behind the eight ball,"
Regardless of your decision, make sure you give consideration and thought to the "next six shots" on the table. We are involved in a very serious game, pick your partner wisely.
