Re: Prepping for 2008: Awards, Bandsaws, and Perspective

I believe that the point he/we are making is that the most important part is the journey and what you take away from it. It's not winning but feeling that you are a winner, because you accomplished more than you thought possible.

Many walk away from a competition as winners without getting a prized trophy.

I agree, it is about:

* Striving for higher goals
* Forming friendships that can last a lifetime
* Putting more time into your work
* Holding an overall higher value of quality
* Devoting your lives to the values and lessons you have learned along the way
* Caring
