Business is a sport or sport – is it a business?
You never paid attention to the fact that the phrases "this is a business!" And "This is a sport!" very similar? In different contexts, they, of course, have a different meaning, but still we decided to find out what kind of sports and entrepreneurship.
The similarity is first: The winner gets everything.
A few years ago, when Anastasia Myskina's career was at the peak, a journalist of one of the sports publications did something like a report on the topic: "One day from life …". By paying attention to the car and bracelet on the hand of Nastya, the author of the article asked the question:
– Probably such adorable things gave you your young man?
"No, they gave me my credit card for which the prizes come to me – the first Russian champion of tournaments of the Grand Slam in Tennis answered.
And indeed, the purpose of any athlete is the result that brings prizes, the attention of the press, sponsorship contracts, public recognition.
And now let's see what a novice businessman dreams of? Of course, about such a number of money that will not think about them. As they say, the bad one businessman who does not want to be in the first hundred Forbes magazine, and the bad athlete who does not dream of becoming an Olympic champion.
Second similarity: Be part of the team.
The best football coach of the world of last year Jose Mourinho, heading the Madrid "Real", the first thing declared the strengthening of the team, while the total cost of football players escaped before his arrival is probably comparable to the annual budget of Cambodia. Any coach and manager of any team will never refuse to strengthen the team, because competition for a place in the composition makes it over a hundred percent over the playground. Athletes protruding in individual sports are also part of the team. After all, to ensure that they achieve results, coaches work, managers, masseuses, doctors, analysts.
And now ask any head of any enterprise: "Do you refuse from a professional who can close a problem vacancy at your enterprise?" No one will refuse! No matter how trally did not sound, but this is unnecessary confirmation that the frames solve everything.
The similarity is the third: Through hardship to the stars.
Dichy 90s, when it was possible to become a millionaire in a couple of months passed. It was certainly great that, having bought a pair of containers of Korean chips, it was possible to send them to the Urals, from there to receive a car of metal rolling and sell it to China, and to buy a steamer of Japanese cars to buy money. Send it to Siberia, get the lineup of the forest and send it to Japan.
Now it is impossible to become a millionaire immediately. It takes time for the establishment of an enterprise, and the more businessman spends time on work, the faster it will reach the result. Every day of work is a tense training, stinging cones, overcoming errors. And the more it turns out, the more Azart. But the less time is given to the close and family.
Similarly, it is impossible to win anything in sports without getting out of the sofa. Gruising fees and two-time training, rejection of entertainment and small joys in the name of His Majesty results.
Fourth similarity: Life trip
With the statement "There is a bad businessman who does not dream to be in the first hundred Forbes magazine, and the bad athlete who does not dream of becoming an Olympic champion" can argue.
First, not everyone is given, but secondly, the case is in the goal that an athlete or a businessman puts. Someone is a fairly small store that feeds the family, and for someone the limit of dreams is the second league or regional championship.
But success and in sports and in the business opens the doors to politics and power, helps to change the way of life, success is a good tool to become an enviable fiance or bride. Not in vain the most enviable grooms of the country are Alexander Ovechkin and Mikhail Prokhorov!
But still, most importantly, that unites phrases "This is a business!" And "This is a sport!", This is another expression: "This is life!". Not everyone reaches the stars. Businessmen are roasted, and athletes stop far from the pedestal. Causes are different, but there is a difference. By losing in the sport, you can then succeed in business, but, losing in business, it's too late to achieve something in sports.
