Competition in sports event and games will always be appreciated. There the players will put forth their best to win. Participation itself is appreciated irrespective of whether one is losing or winning. The players on some occasions become very aggressive and make a do or die effort to win. Once the result is declared everybody will have the appreciation of the Audience who generally watch such thrilling event. Here, everything is fair in love and war is not applied nowadays. It was considered as the meaning of the competition in olden days.
I am recollecting a world cup final/semi-final match played between West Indies and Australia. There was only one wicket in the Australian team to win the match.
Michael Holding was the bowler. He got a very good opportunity to make out the player on the popping crease when he crossed it before the bowler could bowl the ball. Michael holding could make him out just by hitting the stumps which were quite nearby But, he did not do it. He just gave the only action reminding the player on the runner side to be more careful. He does not want to make such disrespectful or cunning game. He wanted to show his ability and wanted a fair play.
The whole audience in the stadium appreciated the sportsman spirit of Mr. Michael Holding Though the match won by Australia the man of the match was awarded to an Australian player, finally a special prize for BEST SPORTSMANship was awarded to Mr. Michael Holding and the entire West Indian Team had the high appreciation of the audience in the Stadium
But, in a business competition, it does not take place The only rule they follow is everything is fair in business The only goal is achieving good business and market to their product
In their eagerness to achieve their goal they involve themselves in lawsuits, file complaints against each other, appoint agents to gather the business secrets of other organization, including the method and combination of ingredients used in the making of products This is very dangerous Sometimes, this may even lead to murders This should be discouraged. They totally forget the ethics and neglect to gain the good will of the customers. By the time, they realize this truth there will remain nothing to be achieved.
