There's always someone who's a bit 42 ．The only solution is to reach 43 and measure against what Warren Buffett calls your own inner yardstick. There is no more 44 measure for comparison than who you were yesterday，last week or last decade，when you were at your 45 . Nothing useful ever comes from comparison to others. 46 you see yourself as better than someone and you get 47 ，or you see someone else as better than you and you feel like you’re your hard work is for 48 ．It is a fool's game. Not one of us is 49 alike. The only direct and honest comparison is 50 yourself. Everything else is apples to oranges.

And if there’s not，you can 54 someone is coming up fast behind you. So how can you always win in life become your best 55 . Having an image of your most recent past limits is the perfect thing to 56 you to the next level. If you ran 7 flights of stairs yesterday，then do 8 today. Who 57 if the guy next to you did 15？It doesn't make a bit of 58 ．You are a more fit person today than you were yesterday. Your own 59 is all you need. If you 60 to a slightly higher standard of yourself every day，you will always be at the top of your game. 41. A. patient B. strict C. content D. concerned 42.
