The question is "winning what??" how important is it really??
I was a brilliant student all those years ago - i WON lots of things - to what end??? Did it make me a better person? Not at all - i was merely playing the game and winning within the parameters set by some other people who decided certain things were worth "winning" lol
To decide if something is "worth" winning or not - you have to look at WHO is setting the bar.  |
Ok, I will put it on A HIGH powered scale..
Winning=survival
Gotta mow the grass in a couple mins. Ego gives value to yourself, who you are inside. I am not recommending thinking your godlike and everything you say is in essence the voice of God. That is a very unhealthy ego. Yet ego defines who you are or at least who you think you are. If your in a life and death situation let me reassure you will want your ego, active and working, for without it, you will lose, and die. DIEING Of course to someone else, I am sure that is value, for me it is opposite. Yet most healthy humans do not want to die.
