Most people consider life a battle, but it is not a battle. It is a game. It is a game, however, which cannot be played successfully without the knowledge of spiritual law. “Whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap.” This means that whatever man sends out in word or deed, will return to him; what he gives, he will receive.

Success Key No. 11: Strength Grows Out of Struggle

Struggle forces us to move when we would otherwise stand still. And it leads us eventually to the full realization that success comes only through struggle.

True lovers of professional football who watch the games and study the offensive and defensive plans and game strategies will come to see two diametrically opposed plans of attack: some teams clearly play to WIN, while other teams simply play to “not lose.” While both strategies seemingly may get you to the same place (winning the game), the game plan of “playing to WIN” is very, very different than the game plan of “playing to not lose.” Both strategic approaches apply to the Game of Success, and the plan that you implement in your game may well determine whether you Succeed.

With so much at stake, there is really only one possible outcome: Success.
