my brother, a licensed pilot
I think I am extremely competitive... but I do it very subtly. Nobody describes me as "competitive." They just don't know. They only think I'm "gifted" but I'm not gifted, I just want to learn and I persevere. I learn more when I enjoy. I'm very inquisitive and that is probably the one thing and edge I have over the others. They stop at their textbooks - I look beyond, I read even the books and cases cited in the reading materials we were asked to read. When I make a position paper, I always make sure the arguments make impact. While other lawyers intimidate me, I don't get scared because it only tells me their arguments are not solid.
I'm about to leave DXP by the way so I'm sharing my life story.
A glorified accountant thinks his career is better than that of a pilot. Dude, just LOL!
#edit: i'm sorry bunny but i find it hilarious you'd be taking some credit over your brother when he really just has to learn some slightly more advanced geometry. It's not that different from maritime math and we were taught that in high school......

RIP Malaysian Airlines
what's his sign
Posted by Mr_PinchyI dunno why he's having a hard time. I know that if he ends up a commercial pilot, he'll definitely have a great future ahead of him. He'll certainly earn more bucks than I do now. But for me, money is not all that important. I care for my health and appearance more than anything else so I avoid all types of stress, just have fun and work out.

Geometry was one of my favorite subjects in high school. I aced my exams without even trying. If I only had the nerve to ask my parents to send me to flying school, I could possibly become a pilot myself but I didn't want them to spend so much for my career. I ended up in law school with scholarships.

"I'm competitive but very subtly. Noone knows"

But while we’re meant to uplift ourselves , my good friend copied my business idea.
I started a small production company and my friend copied it a few months later. The exact same thing i started. She kept it hidden and one day sent me a message about

In 2010 at a friend’s party, strapping 19-year-old rugby player Sam Ballard swallowed a garden slug as a dare.
A group of young friends was sitting around at a table drinking red wine when a slug was produced and one of them said: “Eat it, I dare you.”
I would post on some dental forum or something but I don't have time and you all seemed like a good target audience, maybe you had to pay for your kid's ! Anyway, I have to pay $2,800 for four wisdom teeth extracted, exposure of impacted canine and bondin
My first time ever watching the Bachelor was last night, I was watching the finale with a woman-friend.
After 3 hours of cheese.. I thought Lauren was best for him.
Also, my friend was in my ear telling all of Becca's history and dirt.
So during
I'm sad for him. Meanwhile, both my parents are trying to give him a successful career as a businessman. He's already 29.
I can see him looking at me with envy. I am a cpa lawyer but I was in no way good in accounting or in law. I made it through by sheer hard work, persistence, and flexibility (since I was not naturally gifted in memorizing stuff).
I can sense that he keeps on looking at me with envy coz I was and still am good in Math - I won competitions with the valedictorian of the class as the 1st and me as the 2nd.
To make matters worse, we were always compared by people. We're born one year apart. So there was competition. And it wasn't healthy. I was better in academics - getting really good grades and winning competitions left and right. My brother on the other hand was athletic... but damn he's soooo lazy, he didn't join competitions whatsoever and never won anything. I guess he was happy he beats me in any kind of sports. But dude, you never brought home medals or anything. I did.
The Gattaca movie is very much applicable to us. I was the Ethan Hawk between the two of us... the "more insecure" one... BUT I NEVER CHEATED. I made it through and beat all the odds by hard work. I became a much better person because I believe I can make it. There was always some hope in there. I gave myself goals... and found enjoyment in almost all things that I do. I even work out now and find myself already succeeding. I tell myself whenever I encounter a difficult challenge, "IF I CAN DO THIS DAMNED THING, I CAN DO EVERYTHING." And I did.
