They manage somehow. After all, I was Laurelled just about 2 years ago and
I have not entered any competitions in well over 10 years. I think that
emphasizing competition as a way to choose Laurels is extremely short-sighted and
very biased towards those people who a) enjoy competitions (I don't); and b)
compete well. In my experience, you are often more likely to find the
person with the amazing store of knowledge and skill working quietly away on
something for themselves or their friends or family and not even paying attention
to any competition that might be happening.
