The competition

Let's be clear! Competition is a tool, an illusion of the sorts that can be good or bad.
But to be prosperous in all of our ways, is the goal. With that in mind, it is always YOU V.S. the World. "You" refers to inner self, and the world represents friends and enemies. Having a competitive spirit will surely help you prosper in life, so I have coined this term. Friends "sharpen" you, enemies make you "sharp". Both are needed to improve the self in an highly accountable manner. A friend wants to see you improve at your best because they only want to be around the best to bring the best out of themselves, enemies want to diminish you and take the credit for themselves as the Victor. Once realizing this, you circle may shrink significantly.

Dedication V.S. Loyalty

This is something that I've had in my heart for a long time, loyalty being in the forefront of what I continually heard, but something didn't sit right with my spirit.  As I grew in age, I began to articulate that feeling by understanding the difference between loyalty and dedication. In short, I believe that dedication is much more important than loyalty.  I believe this because I believe in accountability and self love first. Loyalty has to do with a type of submission to a person places or thing even without analysis or deep thought.

They weren't dedicated to themselves,because all of their worked was exhausted for others benefit.  In dedication, it requires your attentativeness, consistent work ethic, and submission to due process. In that I can now honor that beyond what

Only to be controlled  A man does what he sets his eyes upon to be done, with high discipline and control of self.

Passion

Passion  Passion is a concept of undying vigor, it can be described as an unquenchable thirst or an ever burning 🔥 blaze of desire. This burning sensation can seem to have no origin and I wonder sometime if mine is based on a past life's evil failure or successful venture. It seems to be the same on both sides and ambiguous.  The selection of the person places or thing seems to arbitrary. I am a man of keen notice of patterns, perceptions and concepts. I can't say that I've built this curiosity of the passion of knowledge and understanding so it must have been there previous to my existence. Is passion breed, is it selfish, or is it a drive beyond a person's understanding. Almost like it needs a host to survive just as a virus or bacteria. This sounds like a negative connotation, but veils the same, metaphorically speaking.  Sometimes to quantify the meaning of something we must look to see what is the antithesis. The opposite of passion can be nonchalance or the lack
