In sports, athletes are often taught to “play to win, not to lose.” This means taking an offensive and proactive approach, emphasizing the importance of taking risks and pursuing opportunities rather than avoiding negative outcomes.
However, in life, we often find ourselves playing it safe, avoiding risks and mistakes. This can prevent us from reaching our full potential and experiencing true happiness.
To succeed, we need to have confidence in ourselves and our abilities. We must take proactive steps to meet the people we need to meet, learn the skills we need to learn and make decisions that will set us up for success.
To play to win, we must first prepare to win by practicing our craft and finding the right resources to help us achieve our goals. Rather than focusing on avoiding setbacks, we should focus on achieving our aspirations.
