Whether it is an amusement, tactic, maneuver our first association is undoubtably childhood. The resilient energy and drive that takes us on endless journeys. Journeys that teach us and make our mind spark with ideas and how-tos for improving our performance and output. Competing, but with idea of overcoming ourselves and our previous achievements.
