of someone else failing … that is, if I win,

you lose; or if you win, I lose.

not a competitive one.
Win-win is a frame of mind and heart that

constantly seeks mutual benefit in all

human interactions.
Win-win means agreements or solutions

are mutually beneficial and satisfying.
- Stephen R. Covey

but it's an illusion to me.
