I posit that there are, in fact, times that one should be doing things other than closing.

  "Close" means different things to people in different roles. To a salesman, it means make the sale. To a mathematician in academia, it means publish. To a product team, it means ship.

    "The primary thing when you take a sword in your hands is your intention to cut the enemy, whatever the means. Whenever you parry, hit, spring, strike or touch the enemy's cutting sword, you must cut the enemy in the same movement. It is essential to attain this. If you think only of hitting, springing, striking or touching the enemy, you will not be able actually to cut him." https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Miyamoto_Musashi#The_Water_Book https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Miyamoto_Musashi#The_Water_Boo...

      "All warfare is based on closing. Hence, when we are able to attack, we must close; when using our forces, we must close; when we are near, we must close; when far away, we must close." - Sun Tsu
