Winning quote

 "Winning doesn't always mean being first. Winning means you're doing better than you've done before" - Bonnie Blair, professional speed skater

I like this quote. 

I would even take it a step further. 

Winning can mean taking the step to do anything, especially if it's something you haven't done before. 

Winning can mean having the courage to try. 

Making the attempt. 

Seeing something through to its conclusion.

Maybe you didn't win the writing or art contest.

But you signed up for it, you created something, and you submitted that creation.

You didn't win the race. 

But you finished it. 

And maybe you beat your own record. 

That's a win for you.  

Your team didn't win the game.

But you all played hard, you worked together as a team, and you didn't give up.

Winning is a tremendous feeling.

But trying and finishing should feel awesome too.
