worthy enough to be the victor.
It is challenging for my mind,
it helps me get involved.
There is no better way
than to be competitive.
Even if I don't win,
at least I've tried,
and it is good I have
entered in writing contests.
I feel like a winner.
It is a good feeling for me
to focus on competition.
I feel that competition
raises the stakes,
on who gets to win.

natural winning strategy.

for me is normal and fun.
You get many chances
at winning at 1%, or maybe more,
it gives me self-confidence.
