This is a YouTube video titled "Do You Want To Play The Competition or The Creativity Game" containing a monologue or speech discussing the contrast between competing in existing categories through work ethic versus creating new subcategories through creativity and expression. The speaker elaborates on how redefining roles can open new opportunities. The content is from March 12, 2025.
Which game do you want to play? Do you want to play the competition work ethic game, or do you want to play the creativity have fun expression game? If you are trying to compete in an existing category, all you're doing is going, I'm better than all the other people here. If you want to be a doctor, the whole game you're playing is, I'm a better doctor than all the other people who say they're doctors. And that game is predicated on work ethic, long hours, I'm better than you. Incremental improvement. Or you can go, I'm a coder doctor, or I'm an educator doctor. And you combine it with a different category, you create a new subcategory. And now you're not playing a competition game because everyone goes, well, all the doctors are over there, and you're a coder doctor. So I can't put you guys in the same room when you do that. That allows you to then play a creativity game. And now you can go create all the opportunities that you want.
