Cue the motivational music of your choice – Survivor’s “Eye of the Tiger,” Queen’s “We Are The Champions,” Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill,” Elton John’s “The Bitch Is Back,” John Williams’ “Duel of the Fates,” or even the theme tune to “Laverne and Shirley” … schlemiel, schlimazel, Hasenpfeffer incorporated and whatnot … we’re gonna make it!)
Bottom of the ninth, one run down, bases loaded with tie on third and the win on second looking born to run. Two strikes and you’ve got the bat in hand – can you hit it out of the park for you and your business? After listening to this week’s Overlap Podcast, we think you’ll definitely make a move that’ll have Harry Caray screaming “Holy Cow!” … or at least make Vin Scully shut up about Farmer John hot dogs for like five minutes, for cripes sake…
This week, our boys Sid and Keith will find their focus on the final 5 to 10 percent of whatever tyrannical task or grandiose goal you have before you. Think of them as the Burgess Meredith to your Rocky, the Misters Miyagi to your Daniel San … or Hillary Swank San in that third one, the John Candy to your Jamaican bobsled team, the Morris Buttermaker to the Bad News Bear of your choosing or the Gordon Bombay to your Mightiest of Ducks. Quack. Quack. Quack. Quack. Quack.
Just like Powdermilk Biscuits in the big blue box, they’ll give you the strength to go out and do what needs to be done, though neither Sid nor Keith are as tasty or expeditious. (We can’t actually verify that last statement, but I don’t think there’s anyone on God’s green earth that wants to be the ones to verify that last statement. Move to strike passed by acclamation.

Takaways:
The final 5-10% is harder than all of the first 90%
