Know Your Actual Competition

Written by Al at 7P

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?”

    Hello Al:

    Sound quote. If we follow this, we can achieve far more than if we simply compare ourselves with others.
