Chip and Putt

No matter your industry, passion, or art there’s probably something that gets most of the attention (the driver), but for those that see how things truly are they know it’s really about something else in the bag.

Every guy wearing a green jacket points the blame at his putter.

I’ve yet to experience a eulogy, acceptance speech, or award ceremony that mentioned Twitter.

Looks like this is becoming a tradition.

Keep calm. It’s Masters week.

Conventional Wisdom and Green Jackets

Conventional wisdom is the body of ideas or explanations generally accepted as true by the public or by experts in a field.

But it has a hard time predicting what really will unfold.

It didn’t plan on Wichita State being in the Final Four.

It never saw the potential for a billion Facebook users.

And it has a hard time defining and wrapping its hands around art, beauty, experience, fulfillment, and meaning.

So why buy into it?

Why pursue it at the cost of losing everything you are actually after?

Metaphorically, all of us want a green jacket in something. But here’s the deal – all of the green jacket owners you have seen or know have taken very unconventional paths to get there.

Shape your shots and release yourself from the crutch of conventional thinking.
