Donald Trump in Trump:101 asked, “why compete with others when you can beat yourself?”
Perfection.
What we wish we were. What we think we should be.
It used to be about what They think, but it’s not anymore. It’s about Us.
It’s about not being good enough for our Self. We don’t fit with our own image of perfection.
We can not forgive ourselves for not being what we believe we should be.

It’s generosity.
Cooperation.
Want to change the economy?
Examine your ideas around the act of exchanging. When you are buying or selling, what are you thinking about?
What can I get?
What can I give?
What if you approached the exchange of goods and services as a generous act?

You have a choice in the kind of market economy you participate in.
The type of economy you inhabit, as a customer and/or as a business, is yours to define. If you imagine a different kind of market society, and a different way of valuing the world, you have the opportunity to shape it. You are contributing to an integrity-driven economy each time you allow your values to drive your decisions.
Too often though, we betray our values when we find ourselves overcome by money pressures. In these moments, we see our integrity as a cost. But the true cost is acting on our price/profit-motivations, as we can make short-sighted choices that prove far more costly in the long-term.
