Playing The Planning Poker King
Oh Estimate my Estimate!
“KEATING: . . . Now, we all have a great need for acceptance. But you must trust that your beliefs are unique, your own, even though others may think them odd or unpopular, even though the herd may go, “That’s baaaaad.” Robert Frost said, “Two roads diverged in a wood and I, I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.” Now, I want you to find your own walk right now. Your own way of striding, pacing. Any direction. Anything you want. Whether it’s proud, whether it’s silly, anything. Gentlemen, the courtyard is yours.
The students begin walking about, some walking casually, others making up silly walks. Keating notices that Charlie is still leaning up against one of the pillars.
KEATING: You don’t have to perform. Just make it for yourself. Mr. Dalton? You be joining us?
CHARLIE: Exercising the right not to walk.
KEATING: Thank you, Mr. Dalton. You just illustrated the point. Swim against the stream.”
