They spend their energy torturing themselves on how slow they do things compared to somebody else. And, how can we blame them?

We could believe that this inner competition with others would make us better. That it will help us achieve our goals and get further in life. In reality though...i t's a recipe for disaster. People who do that set themselves for unhappin...
