Competition Versus Cooperation

When we think of competition, we usually think of two or more entities going against one another to win the prize. On the other hand, we think of cooperation as two or more entities working in unison on a common cause.

For the most part, our society is based on the premise of competition with just a smidgen of cooperation to keep it together.

Competition and cooperation are both parts of the natural world. We do not have one without the other, and there has to be a balance between the two. When there is homeostasis, there is wholeness and health.

The truth is that, in today’s world, human society does have an imbalance between the two. So how do we bring them back into balance?
