Hi, everyone, today I want you 1.to compete with yourself, not with others. Don’t compete with others. You know why? Because, oh, there are four reasons for this topic. First, if you keep competing with others, not yourself, you are just like 2.a eagle flying high in the sky, and you want to run as fast or as beautifully as a cheetah can do on the ground, ok, so you spend so much time 3.doing the research on the methods or the way a cheetah runs, ok. You find a secret a secret place, spending a lot of time practicing to run. And maybe three years later, or maybe a few years later, you think you are ready, you think you are prepared, so you hold a race, a running race with a cheetah, you know the end, right? You will lose, of course. 4.You will definitely lose. You know why? Because you are an eagle. You are not a cheetah. And then what if you are sad about that. You are so depressed. You spend a lot of time weeping, ok? You get frustrated, and 5.you need somebody to encouage you. You need a lot of time to 6.heal this wound of your mentality. Oh, come on!!! Does it make any sense for you to feel sad about this result? Of course, it’s nonesense. You are an eagle, ok? In the other hand, if you are an eagle. You fly high there. You 7.feel so proud of your ability to run, oh, to fly, ok. You feel, oh, ok, look at those stupid animals. They are running here and there on the gound. Look at me. I can fly. They can not. And you feel so proud. 8.You feel arrogant, OK. Does that make any sense that you feel so satisfied about that? Of course not. You are an eagle. And they are cheetahs, tigers, lions whatever. So if you compete with others. 9.It’s an unfair game. Unfair, it’s unfair. It’s nonesense. OK?
And the second reason for this is. I think, in my opinion, I think this habit of human beings to compete with others, not with ourselves, with others is absolutely 10.from the desire, or the penchant, or the tendency, whatever, 11.to get relaxed, to idle, to avoid labor. you know, to avoid sweat. Why? Oh, you know. If you think you are superior, you think you are great, you are excellent, you are intelligent, you are born into a very good family, you are rich, whatever, and you don’t compete with yourself, you compete with others. You know what will happen? You will instantly, in no time, 12.find a very cheap excuse to stop working, to take a long rest. You know why? Because you look around yourself, the people who are around you, are mostly inferior to you, poorer than you, and maybe uglier than you you you are. So, and then you will lose your motive to move forward, to work hard. Because 13.it needless for you to work hard. You have been a winner. You will lose that reason to work hard, to win because you have won for so many years.
And in the other hand, if you think you are inferior, you think you are poor, you think you are a loser and you don’t compete with yourself, you don’t challenge yourself. You look at the people around you. You look at the people who are driving fancy cars on the street. And you spend so much time doing research on them. ok. And you understand them, OK, and you try to win. 14.You try to be superior to them. And you know what will happen. Maybe after a few days or a few weeks. The same, you will get that very easy and beautiful excuse to take a rest or to quick. You know why? Because you will start to feel that 15.it is impossible for you to improve yourself. You have been a loser. There is no space or room for you to, you know, to make progress. No, not a all, so, you will quit. You, the same, you will instantly, in no time, get a very beautiful excuse to take a long rest. So, I think, in my opinion, if you compete with others, 16.you are just trying to get a very very good excuse for you to use. What? What for? 17.To take a rest.
