Taking Part vs Winning

What if winning isn’t for you?

  • If you don’t enjoy taking part, is winning rewarding? Maybe a little, but delight needs context to be long-lasting, otherwise it merely becomes a quick thrill.
  • If you enjoy taking part, is winning important? Maybe a little, but not really: it’s simply a bonus on top of already having the time of your life.

Of course, it’d be nice to take part and also win. But which matters more? Are you ready to believe it now?
