HP = Higher Power 

Used to reference an open and personal interpretation of God/Deity/Nature or any power greater than one's self.

The idea that there are determinants and conditions to life beyond self-control or human-control is a spiritual challenge that can be defeating or liberating. Attributing negative/positive determinants/conditions to something greater than one-self is thought to be liberating and alleviating. Hence, ideas of a Higher Power have formed the basis of all spiritual practices and religions.

The term HP detaches itself from preconceived notions and religious elements. God for example, is mistakenly associated with Christianity on an exclusive basis, this is not a necessary association. Hence HP unambiguously removes this association.
Coming to my own conception of a HP = Higher Power has been an eye opening experience for me, since it helped me understand that I'm not responsible for everything that happens, I'm simply a part of something.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
