“By confusing strategy with tactics and mixing up “what” and “how”, we may have a hard time staying on point. ”What” we want, on the one hand, and “how” we want to achieve it, on the other, needs a careful reading and a singular approach. (“When the bar is set too high”)”

“Allir í hringnum höfðu hátt um sig og gripu hver fram í fyrir öðrum. Hitalampi brann í loftinu fyrir ofan þau. Lilja fékk sér sopa af bjórnum og þegar hún setti hann aftur á borðið, fann hún að hávaðinn og skarkalinn á reykingasvæðinu fjaraði smátt og smátt út þar til herbergið varð fullkomlega hljóðlaust. Allt stöðvaðist. Fólk hætti að hreyfast; varð líkara útklipptum pappamyndum af sjálfu sér. Hún fann hitalampann brenna á hnakkanum og leit á
strákinn sem sat við hliðina á henni og sá birtuna streyma á andlitið á honum. Haka hans lyftist upp í sömu andrá og hljóðið skall aftur á. Einhver kveikti sér í sígarettu. Kolla lyfti bjór að vörum sér og saup. Mannfólkið varð aftur raunverulegt. „Ég ætla á klósstið,“ kallaði Kolla í eyrað á Lilju og stuggaði við henni. Rödd hennar skar rönd í hávaðann. Þær stóðu upp í sömu andrá og glas skall í gólfið og molnaði. Hlátrasköll brutust út á borðinu á móti þeim. Kolla ýtti við öxlinni á Lilju og þær stauluðust út um dyrnar á reykingasvæðinu og aftur inn á barinn.”
