Pete Rose,the famous baseball player,whom I have never met,taught me something so valuable that it changed my life.Pete was being interviewed in spring training the year he was about to break Ty Cobb’s all-time hits record.One reporter asked, “Pete,you only need 78 hits to break the record.How many at-bats (轮到击球) do you think you’ll need to get the 78 hits?” Without hesitation,Pete said,“78.” The reporter yelled back,“Ah,come on Pete.You don’t expect to get 78 hits in 78 at-bats,do you?”
Mr.Rose calmly shared his rule in life with all the reporters who were anxiously awaiting his reply.“Every time I step up to the plate,I expect to get a hit! If I don’t expect to get a hit,I have no right to step in the batter’s box in the first place! If I go up hoping to get a hit,then I probably don’t have a prayer of getting a hit.It is the positive expectation that has gotten me all of the hits in the first place.”
When I thought about Pete Rose’s rule and how it was applied to everyday life,I felt a little embarrassed.As a business person,I was hoping to make my sales meet the quotas (定额).As a father,I was hoping to be a good dad.As a married man,I was hoping to be a good husband.The truth was that I_was_an_adequate_salesperson,I was not so bad as a father,and I was an okay husband.I immediately decided that being okay was not enough! I wanted to be a great salesperson,a great father and a great husband.I changed my attitude to one of positive expectation,and the results were amazing.I was fortunate enough to win a few sales trips,I won Coach of the Year in my son’s baseball league,and I share a loving relationship with my wife! Thanks,Mr.Rose!
