Hi All!
The wonderful words of philosophy of life of an esteemed aquaintance of mine made me post this topic.....
His Philosophy of life is that the greatness of life lies in enjoying the competition...doing our best and not worrying about the winning.
*****************************************************
Yes..indeed the thoughts were very beautiful.....taking cue from that thoughts....if we take tasks in life as a competition....

Don't we get into a competition to win it?
How can we not worry about the result..if we have the capability or chance to win.....or atleast the desire to win?
Is it possible not to worry about the end result...when some competion is really important or matter of life and death????
Do people bluff when they say they donot worry about the result ?

If winning does'nt matter..then there might be no problems to humans...in this universe....😕

Regards,
Mythili

1. Now a days I am not into any competitions becuase I want to sit lazzily, relaxing.
2. If there is a possibility/ capability of winning a competition then i think there will not be any worry.

3. If the competition is really important, then there will be worry about end result, becuase now a days I am a bit nervous .

Winning Isn't everything. It is the only thing!

I think the problem people face is in defining what winning really is. To many people winning is a numbers game. Being one up over the other and emerging on top. They want to win by hook or by crook and will go to any extremes to win.

However, I personally define winning as giving your hundred percent and being better than your best. Performing with honesty, integrity and intensity in whatever you undertake.

When you have performed your best, you will be the winner. Just like how they screamed 'Second Place Hell Yeahs' in Bring it on. Because it did not matter whether they won the championship or not, what mattered was that they pulled themselves out of adversity to succeed.

Winning is everything but when the outcome is decided by forces not in your power ( as in Indian Idol or SRGMP) it is wise to enjoy the competition and not worry too much about the outcome. At work and school it is different though as the outcome is mostly dependent on one's hard work and talent.

In matter of life and death again , one will never live to see that they lost...😉

As they say , the ones who have seen the end of war are dead soldiers.
