I think with defense especially, you have your core principles. If you do those consistently, then it's easy to make, sort of, game-to-game adjustments. But, when you're not doing your core principles consistently, you end up just guessing a lot. To be honest with you, that's what bad teams do.

J. J. Redick

Certainly, I look for different characters 'cause I always like to keep people guessing, and I also don't like to get typecast.

I'm not the tallest or the thinnest - and I think being in shows is a major part of when I stopped second-guessing myself.

When you're watching a Hitchcock movie, you, for most of the movie, are playing the guessing game. What's the endgame? What's the plot? How are these people involved? It's the best way to tell the story, and as a viewer, that's what you want to experience.

America is the future. I am committed to the States. I'm guessing this is going to be a permanent move.

You have to surprise opponents, keep them guessing. Doing the same thing over and over again without variation will not work.

History shows us that people are terrible about guessing what is going to happen - next week, next month, and especially next year.

Have a well-thought financial plan that is not dependent upon correctly guessing what will happen in the future.

Future Will Well

Whenever you try to pick market tops and bottoms, you are making a prediction. Guessing what stock is going to outperform the market is forecasting, as is selling a stock for no apparent reason. Indeed, nearly all capital decisions made by most people are unconscious predictions.

The East Germans first used biomechanics. This meant that rather than guessing about technique and form, they could apply changes to athletic performance based on science.

Nothing matters but the facts. Without them, the science of criminal investigation is nothing more than a guessing game.

Blake Edwards

I'm not a big believer in second-guessing decisions.

If you ever want to get the facts straight about me or the Batman, please write to the original source, myself, for the truth, instead of second guessing.

Bob Kane

Truth You Write

Most films I work on, the people making the film are constantly second-guessing the executives of the studio, the producer, and the audience. It is very hard to accomplish anything in that situation.

Carter Burwell

Work Very Thing

When women apply for a job, we ask ourselves, 'Am I qualified? Do I have the experience? Do I have the education? Do I have the abilities?' When a man looks at that job, he thinks, 'How much does it pay?' We need to stop second-guessing our abilities. We need to stand up and make ourselves heard.

Catherine Cortez-Masto

Once you've achieved success, and you're making decisions that are working, I don't understand why anyone would be second-guessing themselves.

Chelsea Handler

A big part of that quarterback-receiver relationship is communication. You've got to be on the same page because if you're not, it just doesn't work. Then you're kind of guessing.

Chris Hogan

Work Relationship Communication

For the longest time, I was always like a guy that people would think they went to high school with. They'd be like, 'How do I know you?' After, we'd play a guessing game. I'd say, 'I'm an actor,' and they'd go, 'Oh, what have you been in?' I'd list my credits, and they wouldn't really remember me.

Chris Messina

Time You Would

As a profession, we face unlimited threats with limited resources. We face a lack of trust in some of the communities we serve. We face a whole lot of second guessing and criticism about the work we're doing and the way we're doing it.

Christopher A. Wray

Work Trust Wit

To be honest, I already felt that I was going to win the gold medal, but with school being so hard I was kind of second-guessing myself. So, when I actually was told that I was going to be able to walk across the stage and be done with high school, it was such a relief.

Claressa Shields

Age Wit Win

Joss Whedon and all the writers of 'Iron Man' and 'Thor' found a way to keep Coulson saying something that keeps you guessing. I'm really lucky because a lot of people play agents and don't get nearly as much fun stuff to do.

Clark Gregg

I'm constantly trying to keep people guessing as to what I'm doing, and I will spend enormous amounts of time looking at manuscripts and asking questions, and people will say, 'I know what his next book is about.'

Dan Brown

I go back to South Africa at least once a year, sometimes twice, and usually for a month. And probably, I'm guessing, I'll spend more time back there as I get older.

Dave Matthews

You want to have fun and try new things but also shock your muscles with new workouts so that you keep your body guessing and get the maximum results from your workout.

David Kirsch

I showed people that it's not about guessing what people can do. It's about saying, 'Here, show me what you can do.'

David Ortiz

I truly think a long career is to keep the audience guessing and not being able to be boxed, and for me, I'm not hell-bent on playing the lead in things as long its an interesting character with phenomenally talented people, and it's a script that I feel is genuinely innovative, creative, and potentially interesting for an audience.

David Oyelowo

I believe the path to a long career is to keep the audience guessing. Daniel Day Lewis is my absolute hero from that point of view. I literally will pay to see anything he does because I know it's going to be something different than I have already seen.

David Oyelowo

I found Hollywood pretty bruising and uncreative. The executives are all in thrall to the boss, and spend their times double-guessing him or her, and trying to remember what he/she said and then applying them to the script, whether it was useful or not. They're all in fear for their jobs.

Deborah Moggach

I spent a great deal of my career willingly ignoring the fact that people are participating in it, because it allows me to function without second-guessing it, without thinking, 'Oh, I wonder what people are gonna think of this,' or, 'I wonder what people aren't gonna think of this.'

Devin Townsend

Managers have people second-guessing them all the time.

Don Mattingly

The whole art of war consists of guessing at what is on the other side of the hill.

Duke of Wellington

As an artist, you have to maintain focus and eliminate the distraction of second-guessing yourself based on the opinions of others.

Dwight Yoakam

Part of my problem as a young writer was that I was too much a New Yorker, always second-guessing the 'market.' I became so discouraged that I decided to write something that would please me alone - that became my sole criterion. And that was when I wrote 'Forgetting Elena,' the first novel I got published.

Edmund White

I am a strange creature. I want to challenge myself and keep people guessing with the roles I take.

Eugene Simon

Quickness and momentum. You take the whole last generation of sports, listening to them, even reading about them, watching the games, analyzing them, arguing about them, instant-replaying them, second-guessing them, and all you'll distill from them is quickness and momentum.

Frank Deford

Even a very brief tape-delay introduces a form of censorship into the broadcast - not direct governmental control, but it means that a network representative is in effect guessing at what a government might tolerate, which can be even worse.

Frank Pierson

When you're a father, you know exactly where your heart really is. There's no question of it, no doubt. That part of your life has no second guessing.

Fred Ward

A friend should be a master at guessing and keeping still: you must not want to see everything.

Friedrich Nietzsche

I'll always keep you guessing. I'm living up to the name. It's powerful. That's just what I do.

Future

There's always something in the game you wish you would have done different. That's why players improve, because they learn from what they did before. They might have been guessing before, but now they know.

Gordie Howe

Part of filmmaking is always a guessing game, and part of it is always a game of trust.

Greg Kinnear

Things change all the time, and they'll probably never be the same again. It's just the natural evolution of the human condition. Things change, and whatever it is is what it is. I mean, you try to start second guessing that, you either get rich or die broke.

Guy Clark

When we work with history, to a very great degree we are all guessing. But by using motifs of time and history in a fantasy setting, we are acknowledging that this educated guesswork, invention, fantasy underlie our treatment of the past and its peoples - and we are not claiming a right to do with them as we will.

Guy Gavriel Kay

Guessing what the pitcher is going to throw is 80% of being a successful hitter. The other 20% is just execution.

Hank Aaron

It is easier to keep half a dozen lovers guessing than to keep one lover after he has stopped guessing.

Helen Rowland

I agree with the President that second-guessing is not a strategy, but at the same time, I want to continue the dialogue that ultimately will lead to bringing all of our troops home.

Howard Coble

If you start adapting to audiences, you're really second-guessing the situation, and it becomes a bit more like cabaret.

Ian Gillan

I think with defense especially, you have your core principles. If you do those consistently, then it's easy to make, sort of, game-to-game adjustments. But, when you're not doing your core principles consistently, you end up just guessing a lot. To be honest with you, that's what bad teams do.

Every time people try and define me, it gets battered around. I like to keep people guessing.

Jade Bird

In general, I think it's an advantage politically to keep people guessing.
