But anyways, you get the idea. People who take a foxhole approach to things are people who take things seriously. They tend to work hard and will never shirk or slack.
Or they mean business, as they say. And if you’re in the same foxhole with them, you know you’re in the same boat and will live and die together.
Again, in the business or sports world, it’s never life and death – but people like to treat it that way just to show that they’re serious or single-minded – to succeed.
People who have a foxhole mentality also are also alert, I may add as a fox is constantly aware of dangers lurking around. Soldiers in the foxhole, you see, hide themselves before they have a chance to fire their own shots.
All right, here are media examples of people who take that type of fox-in-a-hole attitude:
1. He smiled. He sort of laughed. Heck, I think he even made a joke. For him, Saturday's Orange and Blue game was Urban Meyer at his best. He used words like excited, pumped up and even looking forward.
Is this weird? Not really. But it's a little odd considering he quit a few months ago. I don't want to harp on the subject, but I don't think I should ignore it either. When he made that decision it felt like the Earth trembled. How is it possible that he righted the ship without patching any holes?
It’s simple really. He wins. So we forgive. But moving on, I thought it was interesting to here him address the subject on Saturday. We all know his “leave of absence” lasted about 12 minutes. There was a time, after all, when his very presence at this game was in doubt. So it's worth noting that it turned out to be a non story really. How quickly we all forget.
