Are You Playing the Right Game?

Competition is everywhere.
We see it on TV.
We experience it in school, at work, in sports, and even within our friend circles. From a young age, we’re taught to play to win — to push ourselves, compete hard, and strive for the top. And let’s be clear: there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. In fact, I’m all for giving your best and playing fair.

But here’s a question we rarely stop to ask:

Are we playing the right game?

Winning feels great — no doubt about it. But what if the game you’re playing, the one you’ve poured your time and energy into, leads to a prize that doesn’t actually matter to you?

That’s the danger: chasing victories that look good on the outside but don’t bring real fulfillment inside.

So here’s a new idea — a game that I believe does matter.

The "Daily Win Game"

It’s simple, but powerful.

Every morning, take a moment to ask yourself:

“What 2 or 3 things would make today a win for me?”

Not a win by someone else’s definition — yours. It could be finishing a key project at work. Having a deep conversation with a loved one. Hitting your workout goal. Eating clean. Writing for 30 minutes. Spending time in prayer or reflection.

Whatever matters most to you that day — name it. Own it. Prioritize it.
And then: Get it done before your head hits the pillow.

Stack Your Wins

Now imagine doing that not just for a day — but for 100 days.

A 100-day win streak.
100 days of clear purpose, focused effort, and consistent follow-through.

Just think of the momentum you'd build.
The confidence you'd feel.
The progress you'd make — personally, professionally, spiritually, physically.

You don’t need anyone’s permission. You don’t need a scoreboard.
You just need the discipline to decide and the courage to commit.

So… What Will Be Your Win Today?

Start small. Start simple.
But most importantly — start.

Wishing you clarity, energy, and a week full of wins.

You’ve got this.
