Play to Win

This week, I want to talk about playing to win at the game of life. If you zoom out and look at life, you'll begin to see that life really is a game. We play offense, we play defense, sometimes we have to sit the sideline, we get coached {hopefully}, we practice, we improve.  When you view life this way, it becomes so exciting. You start to understand that your actions and your choices really do matter…they matter a lot.  As you get ready to listen today, I want you to ask yourself this question...Am I playing to win? Am I showing up, every single day ready to give my all, or am I content just sitting on the bench and letting other people get in the game? Am I looking to actually win or just get the dreaded participation trophy? I hope that if you’re listening to this, you truly have a desire for more. You have a drive to win. No one can put that in you…you have to be the one to decide that you’re going to go after it, that you’re going to win. So, how do you play to win instead of just showing up and being a participant in the game? I’m going to give you a few things that I think will help as you move from bench warmer to starter...from the middle of the pack to the top. Detach from the outcome. Do the small things exceptionally well. Watch out for comparison. Upgrade your environment. Invest in you. Let's play to win.  Enjoy!
