Thought for the Day – Going for the Win
December 3, 2016 by bjcorbin
There is a significant difference between getting the win and attaining victory. If the price of the win is our character, integrity and maybe even a bit of our humanity, I would suggest that we’ve missed “victory” all together. At the end of our lives, our winning percentage, or the number of trophies on our shelf, will not be the ultimate measure of our success. While we can rationalize that the ends somehow justify the means, the means we chose to gain those ends says everything about who we really are.
