We're All in This Together

The Paradox of Winning


Listen Later

We live in a culture that is obsessed with winning - in business, sports, school, and life.  And while I definitely prefer to win than to lose, there is often a real paradox in our pursuit of success.  When we get so obsessed with the outcome, we can lose perspective and forget what we’re truly wanting to accomplish and experience in the process.  On this episode I talk about some of the things that make our desire to win challenging.  I also share some ways we can alter our relationship to winning that can actually lead to more authentic success and ultimately to a real sense of contentment.
