I am sharing this recording from 2015 where I spoke about competition. This is one of my more Christian talks. I think I cited scripture at least three or four times in it. 😊I still hope it blesses you because I stand by every word of it today regardless of how I expressed it then! Please excuse my incredible love for the Warriors first big win in 40 years at the end, it was the times then!
I am always cautioning people against comparison since I hear it so much in many conversations in different ways. As humans I understand that comparison is part of how we learn. It is part of how we distinguish items in our environment. Some of us use it for everything and become obsessed to the point of unhealthy competition, which can lead to cheating which I addressed somewhat in my last post from another angle.
I mention the up close competition of a teammate the embedded recording. I could have also mentioned my competition on other teams who are still friends today: Leslie Maxie, Josie Alexander, Cynthia Sass, Kim West and Beverly Dukes. I have raced against many others but these women always maintained the friendship off the track while being fierce competitors on it - a couple that I am still in touch with today!
I am thankful for Arno Brewer, the coach that I referenced as well. Thanks for your great example of excellence!
