Suppose there is only one well in your village. It produces just enough water for your tribe with very little to spare. A rival tribe moves into your village and tries to take the water for themselves.
What do you do?
Well, it depends on what you believe. (pun intended)
If you have a scarcity mindset, you go to war over the water.
If you have an abundance mindset, you dig another well.
We often think, if I win then someone else must lose. This is absolutely true in competition sports and board games, but in life it just ain’t so. Life is a little more like golf. Did you know…the 100th ranked golfer on the money list, Charles Howell III, made over 250k last year?
Life is not a zero-sum game.
Even if you don’t rank #1, you can still win.
See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
