Have you already got what you want?

A boat docked in a tiny Mexican fishing village.

An American tourist complimented the Mexican fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took him to catch them.

“Not very long,” answered the Mexican.

The Mexican explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his needs and those of his family.

The American asked, “But what do you do with the rest of your time?”

“I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, and take a siesta with my wife. In the evenings, I go into the village to see my friends, play the guitar and sing a few songs… I have a full life.”

The American interrupted, “I have an MBA from Harvard and I can help you!

Checklists were prepared to make sure we had brought everything to the venue – these are “comforters” and take some of the stress away.

Regular rehearsals were programmed into our practice sessions.

A clear set list, no more, no less, reduced the likelihood of “unbudgeted” songs being encouraged by the audience.

So how did it go?
