Note: This one should be read outloud.

I am not diminished
when other people shine

Instead
when I help them
become their best
I also become better
in the process

I will
Stop competing
Start cooperating
Start championing
Stop comparing

I will
Reach out
Touch
Embrace
Enjoy
Celebrate

I will
Give
without thought of getting
Listen
without interruption
Hold the light steady
so someone else can see clearly
so someone else
can be seen clearly

I will
Shout out their successes
Clap for their achievements
Whistle, cheer, and happy dance
knowing
that sometimes they can win
without me losing
because we're not always competing

Often
we're not even playing the same game

Telling someone how great they are
does not lesson the awesomeness
of me

Because I am awesome

I will be better today
then I was yesterday
and we can both shine
together
