The Coaching Advantage

When you are playing the infinite game, you may be surprised to find that others around you are playing a finite game. And because they are playing a finite game, they may feel that your winning equates to their losing. And because lose-win is their perspective, they can work against you and even react vehemently against you. Like fans in a basketball game, they can boo you loudly and try to derail you from your game. If you are going to win in the game, you work with a coach who helps you focus on the game. You also bring with you your own cheerleaders who root for you no matter what. Then how well doesn't depend on the booing fans, it depends on you working together with your support system.
