Everyone's A Winner?

[Jcarbon]

This thread is pretty relevant to me - this weekend my team was a finalist (one goal away from winning!) and Engineering Inspiration winner. Overall, I think we agreed that even though we were disappointed about not winning, we were very proud of making it to finals, especially considering the turnaround we made from being in dead last on Friday. Even though we had hoped to win a Chairman's Award, we were very proud of the EI, and appreciated the team that did win (go 3641!). So I guess my point is that whether you feel like you won depends on the team and your circumstances, and you can feel both proud of your accomplishments while also recognizing your shortcomings.
