1.【寧波市八校XX屆高三下學期期初測試 】in a world where comparisons happen non-stop, it is difficult to look outside yourself and to ever be 21 with who you are. there ’s always someone who’s a bit 22 . the only solution is to reach 23 and measure against what warren buffett calls your own inner yardstick. there is no more 24 measure for comparison than who your were yesterday, last week or last decade, when you were at your 25 .
nothing useful ever comes from comparison to others. either you see yourself as better than someone and you get 26 , or you see someone else as better than you and you feel like all your hard work is for 27 . it is a fool’s game. not one of us is exactly 28 . the only direct and honest comparison is 29 yourself. everything else is apples to oranges.
my opinion is that you are only 30 to compare yourself to someone else if their life 31 is the same as your own. good luck finding that 32 . and one thing is for sure. no matter how hard you work and how dedicated（埋頭苦干的）you are, there will always be someone who can run a little faster, jump a little higher, score a little better or look a little nicer in a swimsuit. and if there’s not, you can 33 someone is coming up fast 34 you. so how can you always win in life? become your best 35 .
having an image of your most recent past limits is the perfect thing to 36 you to the next level. if you ran 7 flights of stairs yesterday, then do 8 today. who 37 if the guy next to you did 15? it doesn’t make a bit of 38 . you are a more 39 person today than you were yesterday. your own 40 is all you need.
