I was listening to the radio a couple of days ago when they were talking about 'Winning at all costs'. It was in relation to sport, guess what football in particular, and whether it was justified and it made me think particularly as I am a nearly successful man. Maybe if I had decided to win at all costs I would now be describing myself as a successful man but would it have been worth it? I actually do not believe that winning should be at all costs but winning is important and I want to be a winner. With the Apprentice just coming back we do get entertainment from the people who seem to be determined to win by trampling on others, but do we respect them?
Taking drugs in sport is another example of winning at all costs but think of the harm that is caused to the athlete and the effect it has on young people. People should also consider the shame when they are caught, because they ususally are and is it then worth it?
I believe that we should try to win to achieve our goals but this should not be at the expense of others which means that it should not be at all costs. Provided that our goals are releastic and achievable we can win and achieve the success that we desire.
Back to my story from which I seem to be getting deflected later.
