Nothing wrong with having a goal and strive to be the best of the rest, but the previous post had provided a good point on where an average person may be at and for some to be not to be too delusional. You can say that is what average people thinking are, but if alot more people have the same thinking of working hard to be the best of the rest, competition increases and eventually you are average in the end without even knowing, lol.
