There is a subtle and not so subtle game of competition that begins the day we are born. In fact competition permeates much of what we do on a daily basis, yet we may not give it a second thought.
Competition drives us to pursue our dreams and achieve our goals. Much like when you let others make you happy or sad, competition can affect your game. It can pull you off course and distract you when you least expect it. It can stall your success by spinning you around on its merry-go-around, making you lose sight of what you want. No longer concentrating on yourself, you look around to see what everyone else is doing. It is a force that has the power to move you in both a positive and negative direction. So, how does one keep a competitive edge on a complicated playground—a playground where it can sometimes feel like everyone is fighting for the same toy?
Stacking our successes against our failures we judge our actions and keep track of our wins. Not only competing with others, we become disappointed in ourselves when our expectations exceed our performance. Sometimes competition can feel like walking on a tight rope. You know where you want to go, but how can you channel your energy, keep focused and maintain your balance?
In “LIFE. GAME ON! A Competitor’s Guide,” Dani Golden shares the knowledge she has gained from her experiences to provide tools on how to better navigate the competitive landscape. Her goal is to encourage others to discover their passion and find their fun.
