Competition -a Good Thing!
Oscar fever peaks today, and right up until the last minute, the producers, the stars, the directors and the studios have been engaged furiously in all sorts of activities to get ahead of the competition tonight. Who’s the big winner gonna be? A bunch of blue-skinned aliens or some defusing experts? Or maybe a washed up C&W singer? I, for one, love it. The Yankee Clan Oscar Ballots have been cast, returned and tabulated, and we’re ready to compete for our own Oscar -that crisp new $20 bill to the person with the most correct predictions.
Competition isn’t a bad thing. It adds excitement to sporting events, the Oscars, the Grammys … and yes, it can help businesses refine and perfect themselves, too. Unfortunately, just as in sports, many businesses fail because they don’t take their competition into consideration.
