Re: Chairman's Award Concerns

The longer you dwell on doubt and shadows, the further you remove yourself from trust and the light of integrity. It's a natural consequence.

This applies to every thought given to anything politically motivated or how teams take advantage of the system. You can spend your time spinning tales or you can do something useful - like work on the character of your contributions to the FIRST experience for yourself, your team, and your community.

Leave the decisions to the judges. Leave the judges and the process in which they arrive to the decisions - alone. Trust the process.
