 Is it necessary to be highly competitive to succeed?

 

I am strongly in favor of the statement, “It is not necessary to be highly competitive to succeed.”

The definition of success is dynamic which differs from person to person but the definition of competition is quite clear which means to win.

And it’s also true everyone cannot be won, isn’t it?

It’s not difficult to be powerful it’s difficult to remain powerful all the time.

The patient who wants to be healthy, a student who wants to improve his grade, employee who wants promotion all have a different meaning for success.

Success manifest in being less stressed, less worried, and more peaceful and happy. But competition gives us distress we become worried about the result before going to the field, we can’t stay happy at that time.

When you focus too much on the competition and how your friend or classmate is doing. Preparing for a simple exam can become too stressful for you and you end up not studying and losing that finally lowers your self-esteem and confidence.

But my friend,

Success is continuous growth where you celebrate small victories and for that, I don’t think we need to be extremely competitive.

Being a highly competitive personality will make you find obstacles, challenges, and competitions and you begin to participate in every competition and get stuck there.

A highly competitive personality is often labeled as self-absorbed and not being flexible.

Our society, family and often schools indeed relate competition with success and you to start to become highly competitive with one and only objective to win all your friends.

You start to multiply effort, create more pressure in the brain, filled with anxiety, and at last, you get yourself ruined. In case you become 1^st by doing all this stuff then what will be the benefit.

Well let me tell you:

You will again start to prepare for the next competitive exam, not make any friends, continue the stress in the brain, grow old and end up your life competing with others.

Instead of that if you were improving yourself daily, learning from your mistakes, and progressing then you’d have done a lot in a short period.

If you were focused on a single objective and head towards removing all the obstacles, then I will guarantee you would have reached your destination.

At last, I will like to sum up by telling that it’s not necessary to be intensely competitive to achieve your definition of success.

 Thank you!
