“Look in the mirror… that’s your competition.” ??

Who are you competing with?
.
We’re all guilty of looking at other people and wishing we had what they had. Sometimes feeling jealous or thinking why not me? We sometimes even lie to ourselves and say “I’ve worked hard for this, why hasn’t this happened to me?”
.
But you see people compete in life as if everything they do is an opportunity for you to win “something”. Some people compete on the basis of who has the best phone, the best car, the best house, the best dojo. All this competition breeds jealousy and hate. There is good and bad competition and all have different results depending on which kind of competition you’re involved in.
.
Look in the mirror that’s the only competition that’s worth your time and energy for you to focus all your might on. Don’t be in competition with others. There are those that want to help you, not compete with you.
.
Look in the mirror… That’s your competition… Your greatest competition. Your REAL competition.
