Kinnell, have none of you ever been to a corporate management seminar?
You don't control the uncontrollables.
You manage the uncontrollables.
Hopefully you manage the uncontrollables tending towards an outcome of positive impact influentials.
Don't however ineffectually manage the uncontrollables, as this can negate future goal oriented success criteria.
