Hey everybody, welcome to Year Move where we help you make better decisions and live with fewer regrets.

I'm Andy Stanley and I'll be your guide.

And today we're talking about winning because after all, winning is better than, well, not winning.

But to win in life, you've got to define the win.

And today I'm going to help you define your win right here on your move.

Today, I want to talk about winning because winning is better than not winning.

Winning is better than you than not winning.

And I know this for a fact because I have been a not winner.

Being a not winner started from me in the eighth grade when I was trying to out for eighth grade basketball took her high school and I got cut at the last night.

It told to me this story. I honestly, I'm not exaggerating, I never tried out for anything again for the rest of my life to this very day.

I have never, ever entered any kind of competitive thing that I thought I could get cut from. It was so traumatic.

So today I want to talk about winning, but personally, I'm not really much of a competitor.

I'm not competitive and maybe you aren't either, but I just wanted you to know that you're not the only one in the room.

I don't lose you on this topic. Others of you are so competitive that you have lost respect for me.

Because you're so competitive. It's like you are such a loser.

I mean, what do you want? Because you're so competitive when you were a child, you were the one that wanted to finish all your food, the fastest, and your parents are like slow down,

everything in your life has been a race. Everything is a race. Everything is competitive. You always have to win. In my mind, I hear a little voice. My little voice says this, hey, you can't win so I try.

That's what I hear. What you hear is winning is everything. Try anything. Winning is everything. Try anything.

So you rise to the challenge. You're willing to do new stuff. It's amazing. You scare me a little bit, but it's amazing.

And I understand this. I have three kids and all three of my kids that are not like me. They try everything. My sons are so competitive.

And I wish I was more like that. Regardless, winning is important because winning is better than not winning, especially in the arena that matters most.

And the arena that matters most, of course, is your life, which leads me to a question that I want to leave you with today that I hope you'll wrestle with a little bit.
