HAPPINESS is being contented with yourself, on who you are, what you are for. You wont be happy when you compare yourself to others. Everyone is absolutely different from one to another, so there's really no comparison and no need to compare.
You are different from me. I don't need any competition nor do I want to compete in anything just to be the center of attention.
At work you have to compete for promotions. In sports and games the competition is very stiff up to the extremes that the stress and pressures are way over the top. All these stress can lead up to illness. When it gets to that point you deny yourself of happiness. When you are sad, unhappy, restless and nervous all the time because of such extreme competition that's not fair and it wont be success. The result of winning should be happiness and fulfillment but if you are to achieve illness that is not success, it's called failure.
Whatever! I try to ignore stressful situation to make me happy and contented. The power of the mind. That also the way of the Buddha. I'm not a Buddhist but some principles of Buddhism helps. Budhi means conscience. Be conscientious.
To achieve greatness starts with clean and purified conscience. The elimination of competition with others is one way or another. Of course you don't compete to lesser people than you are. You don't compete with people without ammunition. Best of all don't compete. Be happy and do what you can do best without the need to compete. Relax, life is not about competition. RELAX, watch a movie.
I watched the movie BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY. It was a superbly, honest to goodness movie on how Freddy Mercury had his beginning as a musician. He was very talented, he was able to sing with incredible emotions, can play the piano, his stage performance and amazing vocal chord is enigmatic and magnetic. Sure, he has a charisma like no other. Freddy was portrayed by very talented actor Rami Malek (Best Actor - Golden Globe's Award, Best Actor - Academy/OSCAR's). THE QUEEN is sure a huge, popular musical/rock band and their music has catapulted to golden platinum. They were huge success. All the members of the band have talents beyond compared. They can sing and they can play musical instruments and they wrote the lyrics of their songs = Great combination. They are the geniuses of the music world. GENIUSES, can't be compared with other rock bands, they are one of a kind. Their songs are almost national anthems that everyone can sing and dance. Their presence on stage was like pandemonium.
US - the movie is what am planning to watch next. Intriguing and controversial movie. Just the trailer of the movie made me scream. It was very frightening. More than scary compared to zombies? We have to find that out later.
