Pushing the Envelope: Competition Kills Creativity and Your Spirit

Pushing the envelope: Competition kills Creativity and Your Spirit Recent EXAMPLES:  The Women's Worldcup ended in disaster for the us, the United States … that is, according to the team mates, sports writers and announcers.  Listen up and then I'll comment on why this competitive attitude killed their chances.  'USWNT is playing to not lose, not playing to win'"  https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxSjYKl3j1zmjBSmB3bVP79v5HR9Pihwkd Here's an example of a recent " clear the benches" scenario- same thing.. Competition killed the usual camaraderie https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxjZWYz9jIZJLJ75o7RoVwE92zcDIYOC3J   Why do these two sports examples exemplify how competition kills creativity and spirit? Because one's imagination, vision of being creative in your sport is more focused on winning instead of focusing on your ELITE SPORT TALENT and SKILLS. A famous coach (basketball) only showed the team's strengths after each game. They WON SEVENTY - SEVEN CONSECUTIVE GAMES. ( not lost 😞 oops) He NEVER focused or even mentioned what they did wrong.. That's the idea here. Kundalini yoga - I have been practicing Qi Chong to treat varicose veins, tired legs and feet.

The tequila is aged for 8 months before being packaged in a bottle made from repurposed Mexican Coke bottles. The tequila starts with agave that has been allowed to mature in the red soil of the Jalisco highlands until its sugar production is at its peak, and then is quickly baked in their ovens (within 24 hours) to preserve the sugars. After being roasted in earthen ovens with thick walls for 24 hours, the agave is allowed to rest for another 24 hours before being crushed. https://www.tedwardwines.com/collections/la-gritona-tequila To wrap it up and how my podcast has changed after 160 episodes: MY Mission  foremost is to help people with their mindset Each episode Includes action steps via links to other resources to help you improve your thinking GOOD THOUGHTS Because thoughts become things so choose the good ones.
