A competitive feeling today may find you defending your position defiantly. Your strong will may be put to use to protect your power. The defense of power and position is the defense of your ego. But we know we are more than our ego wants us to believe. We are spiritual beings who have the ability to rise above our egos\' desires to see the truth of any situation. At best, competition can help us improve our skills and bond with teammates while using body, mind, and spirit all at once. But there are times when we may lose sight of the purpose behind the competition or find ourselves in a competition of our own making. It is at these times that we want to connect to center to breathe in a higher perspective. You can embrace your competitive spirit today and utilize your strong will for the best of reasons.

There may be times when we find ourselves in competition only to keep someone else down. This comes from a place of insecurity, because if we truly felt secure we would have no need for concern about others and their paths. We may be identifying ourselves by our labels rather than our true selves. When you take the time to go within and connect to the universe through the center of your being today, you can be reminded of who you really are--a spiritual being whose physical existence allows you to experience all the world has to offer.
