With the Olympics almost over, I remembered that I have this poster about winning given to me when I got my Event Management certificate over 10 years ago. I really like it and I think it embodies competition really well.
The contest lasts for moments
Though the training's taken years
It wasn't the winning alone that
Was worth the work and the tears
The applause will be forgotten
The prize will be misplaced
But the long hard hours of practice
Will never be a waste
For in trying to win
You build a skill
You learn that winning
Depends on will
You never grow by how much you win
You only grow by how much you put in
So any new challenge
You've just begun
Put forth your best
And you've already won.
- W.A. Clennan
