On Competition

As a co-creator of the game of Azerbaijan (A game of throwing a machete in the air at a tire. Think of a more dangerous game of horseshoes) competition in central to what i do. If i think about today alone, I’ve played a game throwing my daughters toys on the couch, doing a 10-day juice challenge, and raced my wife on drinking said-juice. Competition in my eyes creates fun and excitement when something could otherwise be boring. Its also about creating – a new game, a new experience, or an old game and trying those different strategies. I can go on, but I’m about to play a game in a 1:1 meeting where I act disappointed and see if I can get someone to do more work.
