Love before Money
Gracious Professionalism before Victory!
I do have a lot of gracious professionalism, that's something I'm not really worried about losing. One thing, however, is that I am highly, highly competitive when it comes to FIRST. There are no limits to competition unless they are negative towards other teams. Elites love to win and they fuel the inspiration for other teams and students to become better teams on the robot side of the spectrum. So even though you had a bad run in with this team, give them a second chance. I'm sure they would love to play with you guys again.

"While I was a student in FIRST, it was all about becoming inspired. Now as a mentor/engineering student, it's all about making sure learn everything I can so I can carry that on inspiration for future generations while having a hell of a lot of fun!"
