Secret to swinging a bat and hitting a fastball. Work on output not outcome.

  • Swing as hard as you can
  • Don’t try to hit the ball
  • Drive the heel of your front foot into the ground. This transfers power through a lead leg block.
  • Swing the bat straight across your chest

Once, on ancient Earth, there was a human boy walking along a beach. There had just been a storm, and starfish had been scattered along the sands. The boy knew the fish would die, so he began to fling the fish to the sea. But every time he threw a starfish, another would wash ashore. “An old Earth man happened along and saw what the child was doing. He called out, ‘Boy, what are you doing?’ ” ‘Saving the starfish!’ replied the boy. ” ‘But your attempts are useless, child! Every time you save one, another one returns, often the same one! You can’t save them all, so why bother trying? Why does it matter, anyway?’ called the old man. “The boy thought about this for a while, a starfish in his hand; he answered, “Well, it matters to this one.” And then he flung the starfish into the welcoming sea.

It’s easy to get lost in the negative feelings of a bad relationship. Especially, when the pain is fresh. Keep in mind that anger is a choice, but so is love. One just feels a whole lot better than the other.
