    I was cycling one day and noticed a man in front of me, about 250 meters ahead. I could tell he was cycling a little slower than me and I decided to catch up with him.

    I had about one kilometer to go on the road before turning off. So I started cycling faster and faster. After a few minutes I was only about 100 meters behind him, so I really picked up the pace (速度)and pushed myself.

          ▲       . I felt so good. "I win, " I thought. "But he might even not know we were racing(比赛). "

    However, after I passed him, I was so focused on ( 集中注意力于) cycling against him that I missed(错过) my turn. I had to turn around and go back.

    Isn't it just like life? We often focus on competing with others, trying to show that we are better than them. We spend our time chasing after(追赶) them and we miss out on our own way in life.

    The problem with unhealthy competition is that it's a never-ending cycle. There will always be somebody in front of you. So stay focused and live a healthy life. Run your own race and wish others well.
