The Brutal Ten Percent

I’m only a fifth of the way into my quota, and already I’m struggling. I’m holding off on my judgment of some scripts. I’m delaying my decision. I want to wait. Most of the time people hold off on a good thing because they fear they may miss something better. I’m doing quite the opposite: I’m looking for something worse.

I was initially surprised by my first stack of scripts. I seemed to have a pretty tough job ahead of me. I had to identify the top 10% of all the scripts, and already there was more than one I wanted to push through.

But more on those later. Let’s talk about the one that was definitely NOT going to be advancing to the next round.
