The Necessity of Stacking the Odds Against You and Your Organization
When I was growing up my dad had a variety of sayings that he repeated many times. His favorite was, "I always cheer for the underdog." If two teams were competing and he didn't know either one, he would ask, "Who's the favorite?" After I told him, he would say, "Okay, I'm cheering for the other team." I suppose since he was born six months before The Great Depression that throughout his childhood and teenage years he felt very much the challenge of having little or no money to achieve what he wanted in life. Consequently, he was always trying hard at whatever he did and cheering for the person or group who seemed to have less going for them.
