Blocking & Tackling

People are always looking for a silver bullet to help their businesses. Silver bullets can be great, but so often companies don’t succeed due to poor execution of basic things. They try to throw the bomb but forget to block and tackle.

So I loved seeing a fact in a New York Times Magazine story on Mike Oher, a star lineman at University of Mississippi who had a rough childhood. The second highest paying position in the NFL, after quarterback? Left tackle.
