While some people might think competition is bad, a small amount of healthy competition could actually boost your progress in whatever it is that you are competing in.
I will talk about two incidents in which I benefited from competition.
the first incident is that once when i had gone to Bangalore, I met my Father’s friend’s son who was a very good Pianist, but when he played one high level song, my father kept joking i was overwhelmed and such. so to prove him wrong i went and learnt that piece with a manic energy that i learnt it in less than a month.
The second incident was in my school, i was sitting next to a person who always got full marks in the tests and i started competing with him which resulted in me also getting full marks in my tests
so what i learned from this is that with some amount of of competition is actually good for you
