It's only human nature for comparison; challenging one another to be the ultimate victor!
But when you think about it, eventually we all are heading for the same destination.
i.e to strive for excellence and provide for one-self and the ones under
So what's the need to be
KIASU?!
Haha. Honestly, I don't know. I guess if you take this self-made equation as an example
study lots + learn from others +
with-hold info(not sharing) to others
= Advantage over others
= ability to do better than others
= become better than others
= WINNER!
Now, by doing so the answer is clear. But take example a person learning together
study lots + learn from others +
share with others
= ability to better one-self
= do well
= Winner?
Hence, with that let us compare the two.
One, the Kiasu student, emerges the TOP!
The person learning together, does well but may end up second best.
To me, there isn't much of a difference. I guess essentially it's your MAIN Aim/ Goal.
Are you in it to
show you're the best?
or
Are you in it to
succeed for yourself with others alongside?
The choice is in your hands.
