Players and Fans

The other day I was writing on a friend's blog about sports fans. I got on a bit of a roll, and finished up with this comment which summed up my point - and kinda also sums up this blog.

If we are to take inspiration from sport, I suggest we aim to be more like the players than the fans. Players eat, sleep and breathe the game. It is a part of their lives every day of the year. Their life is centred around improving their game, such that they can be more effective. Every now and again they come together to do something so great that thousands are attracted to it.
