My Thoughts On Competition, and Why I No Longer Do It
In my network of friends / family / colleagues, I’m most often known as ‘The Investment Guy’.
Because of this, I’m often asked about the latest trend in investing, whether it be years ago, gold and silver, the Greek Crash a couple years ago, or more recently, weed stocks and cryptocurrency.
To see our other videos in this series, where I give my thoughts on weed stocks, crypto, diversification, retirement plans and more, click here.
Today, I give you my thoughts on something a bit different.
I always have been, and still am, hyper-competitive in many things.
But today I tell you why I rarely compete in anything other than cards, games, and against my past self anymore.
Let’s get to it.
In the 14-minute video above, I tell you my thoughts on competition.

Here are some of the things I talked about in the video above.
- What I’m hyper-competitive
- Why I no longer compete in most things
- Why I try to dominate
- Why I still will work to beat you every time I play any kind of game against you
- Competitive advantages
- And more…
You learn several reasons above for why I rarely try to compete anymore.
This video from Eric Thomas further illustrates that point.
If you’re wondering how I apply this concept to everyday life, one example is my investment portfolio.
I haven’t bought anything in 3.5 years in the stock market because I won’t compromise on my strict investment criteria.
I shoot for great. Always. Never average.
Does that mean I always achieve this? Of course not.
But at least I’ve learned a lot along the way and have gotten to a higher level by trying and putting in full effort.
I’m a huge believer that this mindset can help you too.
