Live life with an open mind, flexibility, and being ready to adapt. My point is that it’s ok to fold, give up, pivot, readjust, stop, or change course. For me, it’s my faith, family, or living. Now there are some things you or I shouldn’t ever give up on. After rising to the top of wrestling he transitioned to acting and is now the highest paid actor.
POT COMMITTED PROFESSIONAL
He dreamed of playing in the NFL but when that didn’t work out he became a professional wrestler with only $7 bucks in his pocket. (I’m sure there’s a lot more math involved in it, but that’s the gist.) And with all the heated arguments on Facebook, all intensity flying around, I can’t help but wonder, Are they really pot committed I mean, they seem to care A WHOLE LOT about this issue. Like Ray Kroc spent most of his career selling milkshake devices but gave up on that career to buy McDonald’s at age 52 and it’s now the world’s biggest fast-food franchise.ĭwayne “The Rock” Johnson has transitioned careers multiple times. There are tons of examples of people changing course and giving up on a dream that led to accomplishing something new. By giving up on the idea that physical strength is the most important thing has helped me immensely live a more happy and fulfilling life. What I have come to discover is true strength lies within us, which was not easy to grasp when I spent so much of my life early on trying to acquire physical strength.
You make a commitment and when you see it’s not going in the right direction you feel obligated to not give up on it and see it through to the end.Ī few painful things I have had to give up on was being a football player and being this physically strong macho man, husband, and father.
You hold onto something so closely and for so long it’s hard to let go. People get “pot committed” to businesses, careers, relationships, goals, beliefs, identities, or expectations. It’s not easy giving up on something you have given so much into because it feels like a waste or failure. However, I see players falsely use this term because they didn’t want to fold and lose the chips they have already bet, but ended up losing more by sticking around. A frequent error people make when playing, which I have been guilty of too, is justifying reckless betting because you were “pot committed.” Meaning you have committed/bet so many of your chips early on into the pot that folding wouldn’t make sense due to your chip stack. One of the hardest things is knowing when to fold. Like life, with poker it’s not just about the hand you are dealt but how you play the hand. I love playing poker, specifically Texas Hold-Em.
