Short YouTube interview segment in which Scott Duffy introduces former MLB pitcher Jason Turley. Turley explains an acronym he wore on his hat—"perfect that which is lacking in your game"—and applies the idea to both baseball and business: celebrate wins but identify and fix weaknesses or risk failure.
Former MLB pitcher Jason Turley tells us how to perfect that which is lacking in your game. That's right. Now on Business and Burgers Sliders.
Well, I had a little acronym written on the bottom of my hat when I was playing, and it stood for perfect that which is lacking in your game. Yeah, Maybe I'm throwing 90 miles an hour. Maybe I'm hitting the ball out of the park. Maybe I'm doing really good as an athlete, but what can I do better? If you can be better, why not be better? And I think it applies.
Perfectly to business. Because I think a lot of times business owners, they're going and they want to. They want to make themselves feel good. They want to make themselves feel important, like, hey, I'm running a business. I'm doing good. This is all great. But don't get me wrong. I'm all about celebrating the wins and having the positive culture and everything else. But if you don't look at the things you're doing wrong, I think you're kidding yourself. I think you're just kind of playing business sometimes and saying, hey, hurrah, hurrah, hurrah. Let's look at the things that we're doing right. Celebrate them. But let's not be afraid to perfect those things which are lacking in. In our game, you know, in business. And if you don't perfect those things in baseball, you're going to Pocatello. You're done.
