'?If competition were a virus, we would have an epidemic on our hands.'? Whether you realize it or not, you face competition every day: colleagues frantically grabbing for the next rung on the corporate ladder, athletes striving to improve their performance, students stressing about their class rank, shoppers vying for the shortest checkout line. We?re all playing the game, and we all want to win. It?'s easy to be distracted by trophies, money, promotions, and attention, but is that really what it?'s all about? Can you still be a serious competitor if you value qualities like character and integrity? Even better, is it possible that these attributes can actually "help" you on your way to the top? Dr. Jeffrey Brown, clinical and sport psychologist on faculty at Harvard Medical School, identifies seven crucial principles which can guide you to victory every time you compete. He?ll teach you to rethink what it means to be a winner and to develop personal attributes that give you a "competitive edge." Follow his guidance and you?ll build a stronger character that will be an asset to you in any job interview, any performance evaluation, or any personal relationship?in short, any area in which you wish to succeed.Brown, Jeffrey is the author of 'The Competitive Edge: How to Win Every Time You Compete', published 2007 under ISBN 9781414313306 and ISBN 1414313306.
