Race against yourself

Everyone is different -- never seek to be like others. Rather, seek to be superior to our former selves. Don't race against others. Race against yourself.

-- Robin Sharma, The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari, p.148.

The first thing is that I don't wanna push others to agree with me. The important thing I would tell is not to race against others, even yourself. The reason is to take your time to do everything as possible as you can, whether better or worse, since I can not run faster than before due to the age but still can be happy through the other way. :-)

That's a good point, Jerry. But I think we meant the same thing: live our life ACTIVELY.

I think so. The active attitude regarding the world is very important to us whether suffering the agony or enjoying the happiness. As you know, the life is supposed to the mirror so that it will be joyful while one's smiling in front of the mirror and sad while one's crying.
