Competition is part of the
success journey, it could be healthy or unhealthy but you must not allow
competition to distract you from your goals and purpose in life. Either on your
job, business or academics, competition is good but you must be careful enough
to observe that everyone in the world has his or her own destiny and we are all
on different road to success. It will be unwise to use someone else’s yard
stick to measure your success because each and everyone in this world probably
knows where they are coming from and heading to as regards successful living.
Why do people compare themselves with
others? Why do people want to be someone else, other than who they truly are?
Sometimes, there are people who wish they were born into one wealthy family or
the other. The truth is this, as long as you wish to be someone else, you can
only be a copy not an original and this reduces and devalues your personality.
It is unfortunate; we have several people stuck in this situation all their
life. I challenge you to be the original that God has made you, refuse to be a
copy of anyone, improve on yourself and be the best of you. You are not in
competition with anyone, so stop comparing yourself to people, it brings a lot of
unnecessary pressure on you and this affects your focus in life.
