BE YOUR OWN COMPETITION

 

There will always be someone better. No matter where we are and what we do, there will always be comparisons.  Human society is so in nature. Even the most accomplished person will be faced with this statement, "You could have done more." So don’t waste your time trying to live up to other people's expectations. Be what you want to be. Life is a journey. Not a competition. You don't have to follow or mimic a person just because he or she is successful. While it is good to follow the good morals of a person, it does not testify to sacrificing your own identity. 

Every fruit has its own sweetness. Two humans are completely different from each other. There are things that only you have and others don't.  Similarly, there are things they have but you don't. That's what makes us unique. While comparing yourself to others is the biggest self-abuse, many times, we are compared with others by society as a whole. The only solution is to pay no heed to what they say.  People will always look down on you. But when you succeed, there will be a million hands to clap for you. 

Be yourself and set an example. Comparing yourself to others not only kills your self-confidence, it also kills your talent. It takes away your happiness and peace and brings suffering and pain. So be you and show them, like Ralph Waldo said, “To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” Think about how you can be a better version than your yesterday self. That's how you grow and be a better you. Always compare yourself with your past self. Challenge yourself and conquer the world. Because only you can stop you.
