When faced with a pending disaster, it seems to be human nature to work harder at the same tasks that led to the pending disaster. That is, doing more of the same thing with the expectation that the results will be different. It seldom works out that way. What does make a difference in the outcome is taking a new action.

One of the rules of the road for ocean going vessels exemplifies this principle. Take early and obvious action to avoid a possible collision. Two ships moving toward each other on the open water? Don't turn 5 degrees when 15 degrees would be more apparent. Don't wait 'till your are 4000 yards apart when you can turn at 15 n. miles.

Be bold. Be obvious. Be unstoppable.
