I recently read a story about two different NASCAR drivers that had been placed on probation and fined twenty-five thousand dollars for aggressive driving. I say that if you are not an aggressive driver, you should not drive a race car to begin with, but let’s focus on the penalties. Do you think the dollar amount that was designated actually hurt them? Are they more interested in finishing first or in the finances? Both of the possibilities seem somewhat misguided to me. Shouldn’t we focus on helping others more than benefiting ourselves? This would include our own families, or perhaps the neighbor next door who has been laid off and can’t afford to buy groceries, or any number of other possibilities. I believe that if our attention would be on others more than ourselves, we would see significant results. Comment here.
