On the pitch

When faced with an issue or a difficult situation, it is often useful to ask "am I on the pitch, or in the stands?". Being on the pitch means that you are part of the team and playing the ball (i.e. taking action). If you are in the stands, then you are a spectator, and all your of words and opinions do not matter.

When you see others in the stands, call them down to the pitch, or tell them to cheer. Do not waste time on their opinions. Remind them that you can only score a goal if you are on the pitch! Similarly, if you cannot play the game, then don't pretend to be on the pitch. Get back to the stands and cheer others on.
