Competition.
It is inherent. A
girl child imitates the mother.
A boy child imitates the father. Young ones
are found to imitate
the elders. As they grow up imitation
turns into
competition.
Human life is a game of race between one another or one
against all.
We have to enter into competition to achieve life’s goal.
Sometimes we see our profession as a race or a competition.
We get up in the morning, put on the running shoes and head
towards
the race track, which is our office. The other runners are those who are involved
in the same profession to be running along just like us. We tend to believe that whoever
gets the earlier start or runs longer is the winner. Life is an unusual race that never ends.
We run until we quit, get hurt or retire.
Competition is good for any man up to a point.
It becomes harmful to himself or others, when it goes too
far.
When a man enters into competition at work he loses his
ability to be objective.
And he is apt to make many mistakes. Competition is a blind
race where there are no winners but losers.
If one has a problem with being overly competitive, with work if he runs
alone, rather than running against someone else, it may yield better result.
Doing your work at your own pace, in your own way will get you
further in the long run.
Healthy and constructive competition builds life. Perverse
competition destroys life.
