The standards you are using are not good. You dont have to become the best to enjoy the doing of things. Life is about the journey, not the destination.

My dad used to always tell me if you cant be the best dont even bother. Even though it was his primary sport, since we are asian, he wouldnt teach me to play basketball because I couldnt be the best. I 100% disagree with his philosophy.

In life Ive never been the best at anything, it takes too much work. However I have been pretty good at a lot of things and enjoy the learning and the doing. I have had a lot of hobbies and I guess my passion is learning new hobbies.

When your happiness depends on other's judgement of you, you will never be able to consistently be happy.

I have run my own company for 18 years, this year we will just hit 8 million in revenue. Yet, many of my friends have built and sold companies for 10+ million in just a handful of years. Im clearly not the best, but who cares? I have freedom to do other things I love and enjoy my work even though I would rather be building computer games.

At my company we try to help discover what the company can do to help people live the life they love. It is surprisingly harder than you might think for people to listen to their own voice because it is drowned out by all the voices around them telling them what they should love and what they should do.
