[Clint Hurdle @ClintHurdle13]

As a hitting coach, I watched players come back to the dugout after making an out.

They'd look at me and ask, "What'd you see?"

I'd go through the mechanical stuff like back side collapse, front side energy, head came off the ball. Man, it was wearing me out!

Finally, I realized I needed to simplify.

So the next time a player came back asking what I saw, I just asked him: "Did you get a good pitch to hit?"

That usually stopped the conversation. Because if you don't "get a good pitch to hit," it's hard to get a hit.

This works in our lives too.

Whatever task I take on, I ask myself: Am I putting myself in position to succeed?

Did I eliminate distractions? Did I prepare? Did I practice? Am I ready to produce?

In life, your "good pitch to hit" probably isn't the same as mine.

That's the beauty of it all.

I've swung at some bad pitches in my life... so have you.

But one bad swing doesn't always end the at-bat.

Hitting is a lot like life.

It can be simple, but not easy.
