In a game of winners and losers, everyone loses in the long run. That’s just how it goes: the challenger becomes the champion, and eventually every champion falls.

So stop looking at others to figure out who you are. It’s only gonna make you feel inadequate, which will poison your ability to make smart decisions. What’s more, if you think too hard about what everyone else is doing, you’ll wind up doing it too. And nobody wants to get down with a copycat.

Instead think long and hard about what they’re not doing, and about how to do better what you do best. This will take more work than straight competition because there’s nobody to follow.

But it’s worth it. Pretty soon, there won’t be a competitor in sight—they’ll all have become potential partners and clients. Or else they’ll have become completely irrelevant.

A soldier stationed in Afghanistan recently received a letter from his
girlfriend back home. It read as follows:

Dear Ricky,
I can no longer continue our relationship. The distance between us is
just too great. I’m sorry. Please return the picture of me that I sent to
you.

Love, Becky

The soldier, with hurt feelings, asked his fellow soldiers for any
snapshots they could spare of their girlfriends, sisters or ex-girlfriends.

In addition to the picture of Becky, Ricky included all the other pictures
of the pretty gals he had collected from his buddies. There were 57 photos
in that envelope along with this note:

Dear Becky,
I’m so sorry, but I can’t quite remember who the hell you are.
Please take your picture from the pile, and send the rest back to me.

Take Care,
Ricky
