People can achieve goals by cooperation rather than competition.

In summary, what my opponent stated to argue against my representation were 1. motivations, encouragements, etc are not included in the topic. 2. competition only hinders people from achieving their goals, rather than help them to do so. My opponent implies that I pulled out the context of "goal" in my arguments. However, I did not pull out the concept of goal, instead, I tried to explain the circumstances that someone needs in order to achieve his/her goal. Even though no where in this topic are the terms, "motivation" or "success" or "setting a goal" or "effort" or "encouragement", achieving a goal without these words cannot be considred as a goal. Noone can possibly achieve a goal without motivations or encouragments, which can be obtained by competition rather than cooperation. Achieving a goal cannot be separated from those terms, whereas cooperation is not necessarirly needed in order for someone to achieve his/her goal. My opponent argues that "motivation and achievement are not the same thing," but noone is able to achieve a goal without motivations, and achievement can only come after a motivated person. Therefore, competition, which gives people motivations for their goals, is much more important than cooperation to achieve someone's goal. My opponent also represents some examples, which he admits as "humor examples." Although someone can set his goal to shake someone's hands more politely next time, most of people's goals would be something more grandiose, and need much more effort in order to achieve them. For example, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs now are the two CEO's of the biggest computer companies in the United Staes. Their goals were to found the most recognized company in this country, and they have achieved their goals without doubt. This was possible because they were competing against each other, which gave them motivations to make better products for people, and introduce higher technology. Even though they were competiting aginst each other, they were not stymied by their competition, but rather they were motivated and encouraged to take steps forward to achieve their goals. Going back to my opponent's doctor example where he stated "One particular doctor sets the competitive goal of helping more patients than the other doctors. Seeing as there are more patients than doctors, in order to achieve that goal the doctor must cooperate with more patients, more staff, more marketing channels, etc." The doctor's goal already conveys the word, "COMPETITIVE", which means that competition alreday takes up the half of portion of his goal before even starting to attempt to achieve his goal. Cooperation was only a path for someone to step on in order to achieve the goal, which was primarily based on a competition. In this case, cooperation with staffs and patients was needed, however, the more important matter to the doctor was competition, in order to reach his goal. Motivations and encouragements, which can not be fully obtained by cooperation ,can be obtained by competition against rivals. They are highly important for someone to achieve his goal. Even though my opponent believes "There are lots of people out there who are motivated to become millionaires but there are many fewer who have actually achieved it or will achieve it," if none of them had the motivations to become millionaires, would they(even though only a few) have had become millionaires?
