"You don't play against opponents, you play against the game of basketball."

- Bobby Knight

This is a great reminder that even competitive games are all about doing your personal best. It's not about beating the competition, it's not about being better than someone else--it's about being the best that you, personally, can be.

This is good advice for all of life. Competition is a great thing, but it's important to remember that the purpose of competition isn't to win, it's to help you reach new goals and achieve new challenges.

Competitive games are about building yourself up, never about dragging others down.
