Why We Love Tiger

Tiger Woods is the best golfer in the world. He may end up being the best of all time. In sports, it's easy to measure success. Who's the best is usually as simple as who wins. Tom Brady is arguable the best quarterback of the decade with 3 Super Bowl rings to prove it. Derek Jeter is one of the greatest Yankees of all time, recently setting the Yankee record for most lifetime hits.

What about the rest of us? Where do we rank?

Name the best CEO of all time. Can you? Jack Welch may come to mind, but how do you know? What are the equivalent wins and losses? Market share? If that's the case, GE doesn't win.

Who's the best school teacher? Principal? Fireman? Policeman?

Life isn't as easy to measure as sports. We don't chalk up really measurable wins and losses each day. What we strive to do is to be the best that we can be.

Sure. Sometime things get in the way.

And sometimes what gets in the way is looking back at us in the mirror.

Measure what you can. Set some goals.

If only keeping score in life was as simple as sports.

How are you keeping score in your life? Or do you?
