Competition Inspires

Published on 22 March 2025 at 19:09

Competition inspires excellence.

Excellence inspires purpose.

Purpose inspires people.

 

 

Sadly, most people are afraid to compete.

They don't like the idea of pushing themselves...

 

 

We all have these pretty quotes in our mind;

 

  • Comparison is the thief of joy.
  • Partaking beats winning.
  • There's no shame in losing.

 

 

While all of these hold some truth...

They actually don't promote any progress.

 

 

Truth is,

 

Only winners leave a legacy.

Only winners make impact.

Only winners are remembered.
