The day after a big Karate tournament, a man went to work. Everyone noticed that he had a big bump on his head.
"You must have lost," said one of his co-workers. "That's a huge bump on your head!"
"Actually, I won said the man sheepishly. I was the grand champion."
"So how did you get the bump?" asked the co-worker.
"Well," replied the man, "the trophy was over 6 feet tall and it fell on me!"
"Sounds like the trophy should have been the grand champion!" quipped the co-worker.
The reward for skill is skill. If you have skill, trophies don't matter. If you don't have skill, trophies won't help.
