Know Your Actual Competition

This is one of my favorite quotes:

The goal is not to be better than the other man,
but to be better than your previous self.

- an old Hindu saying

The question is, “Am I better today than myself from yesterday?”

More importantly, “Will I be better tomorrow than the person who I am today?”
