Healthy Competition?

"There's no such thing as a healthy competition, a competitive mind is the most derailed one."


Competition is a just a reason for us to go self-absorbed @ self-revolved, whereby we pick on others - our rival or competitor as a target to knock down.

We wanna win so bad, that sometimes, it is not just our competitors can feel that friction. Even those who live or compete on our side are burnt in the process.

Competitive mind is a most restless one, while it seems a mind so focused on a single goal, driving us to impossible limit or boundless capabilities.

A competitive mind is actually one who is based on fear while it seems so hopeful & inspirational because we aimed for victory in any kind of way. As long as we can win, we 'll try or do anything to make sure we own it. When we failed to do so, the mind is so carried away by doubts & fear, it starts to cause disharmony within you & those around you.

We thought we knew what the rules are of a competition but the technicalities & issues that may occur are just simply out of our hand.

Another issue which is so CRAZY, actually it's kinda a joke when the competition is over... is that everyone thinks that they deserve to win. There can be never a situation where everyone is a winner of the PRIZE, if everyone wins, it can no longer be called a competition.

But losing a competition, does not mean that you'll lose forever. As long as we failed to grasp this concept of gaining during the process, a competition is just what it is, unhealthy & derailing.
Those who wanna win so bad, there's a price to pay to gain the prize. It may be $$$, time, effort and even to an extent of losing a fellow friend.
