In sports, I generally played for the enjoyment. I played hard in both practice in games. I played my position well. However, I also played to win. Fortunately, I was lucky to play for coaches who played to win and knew how to win. As a result, I played on several championship teams, including a state championship football team.
Nowadays, I play sports primarily for exercise. Today, I was watching a professional sports tournament. All the participants were all playing to win. I realized one thing I missed in retirement is the excitement of winning a championship: the thrill of victory.
So I'm going to start challenging myself again by playing to win. First in sports and then I'll see what's next :-)
