Can badminton make you a better marketer?
When I was at school we had this sports competition where we played other schools at certain sports. One of them was badminton. I ended up playing this girl who I thought I would destroy. After all, I was a lot bigger, faster and stronger than her. I knew she played for her country, so I thought it would be a good game but still...
She absolutely destroyed me. Something like 15-4 and that was me being lucky. Do you know why she beat me?
She could play 5 moves in front. She knew exactly where the shuttlecock was going to be after 5 moves and she could send me wherever she wanted.
It's the same in pool (or do you call it billiards) when you want to win. If you're good you can read the game and know what is going to happen many shots ahead.
Are we being naive only playing the shots that are directly in front of us? Should be be looking to the future and playing 5 shots in front?
What do you think?
