No one needs to drown so that you may swim.
When you choose to pursue success in any endeavour, it is essential to concentrate on your own efforts and not waste time anticipating the failure of others as a means to advance. Rather than viewing someone else’s accomplishments as a hindrance to your own progress, you can channel that energy towards refining your own unique attributes.
The sky has boundless space for everyone to soar. If you notice that somebody is ahead of you in the same race, acknowledge their hard work, dedication and perseverance, and draw inspiration from them. You do not need to knock others off their pedestals to attain the height you are praying to attain.
Additionally, maintain a steadfast connection with God through prayer in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking guidance and strength in your pursuit of success.
