You Can Win Without Competing

Published at 10:58 pm under Ethics In The Workplace

You have probably been raised with the idea that to win, you always have to compete with others. For example, to be the winner in a running race, you have to beat the rest. However, there is a better and healthier way to win: winning without competing.

Let me demonstrate this better and healthier way of winning for you. Image we have a chocolate cake, shared by four people. The fairest way for these four people to eat the cake is to cut the cake into four equal pieces. Now, you happen to like this cake and you want to have some more. In other words, you want to WIN some more cake. Now, if you go with the traditional method of winning, you will have to take another piece from another person. This is winning by competing. However, there is a better way to win if you want to have more cake. You just need to bake a bigger cake, so everyone can have bigger pieces. Everyone is a winner. You do not need to compete with anyone. Nor do you have to take away anything from anyone. This is winning without competing.

Apply this method to a business. If you operate a business in America and you feel that the market is saturated. The only way for you to win a bigger market share seems to be competing with your competitors in America. Now, think about winning without competing! Why dont you take your business global and attract all the customers on this planet to your American business world. In this way, every business has a bigger market share.

Even in the example of a running race mentioned above, you can win without competing. For all the racers to win, all they have to do is to set a target for themselves to achieve before the race. Even if they do not become the fastest runner in the race, they still can be winners if they have achieved their own target. So whenever you feel competition is too tough to win, remember You Can Win Anything Without Competing.
