You are absolutely right and that analogy applies to our own personal race as well. If we spend time judging others and measuring ourselves against mankind we miss the opportunity to run our best race. Thanks for the insights Andrew, I always enjoy reading your brilliant mind at work. Andrew, I of course love the race analogy :-) and it is a perfect metaphor.

If, on the other hand, you focus primarily upon your own race (whilst being aware of your competitors and where they stand), then the chances are that you will develop your own excellent rhythm and that whilst coming first is not guaranteed, you will run the very best race in which you are capable. .-= Andrew´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.goodhonestdollar.com/stern-hus-detention-and-why-the-international-business-community-should-be-worried" rel="nofollow">Stern Hu’s detention and why the international business community should be worried</a> =-.
