Have you ever run 3000 meters? There must be. Running around 1500m, do you feel that your legs are getting heavier and heavier, out of control, panting, more and more anxious and uncomfortable, and you can't keep going? At this time, do you choose to give up or bite your teeth? If you insist on running down, maybe your grades are not as good as others, but at least you have surpassed yourself and succeeded!

"Beyond yourself-the only way to succeed." This is my motto. In the process of studying, I seldom compare my grades with others. I know that ten fingers are long and short. Simply comparing with others will only hurt my enthusiasm and self-confidence, although it is a bit like watching. I will arrange the test papers in chronological order, see if my grades have improved or regressed in a period of time, and sum up the reasons, so as to surpass others and make continuous progress.

People are the easiest to surpass themselves, but in fact, it is themselves that are the hardest to surpass. Newton is known as "one of the greatest scientists in the 20th century". He is a good example of surpassing himself. He discovered gravity, founded Newton's first and second theories of motion, and established his position as the greatest scientist in the 20th century. No one in his time had such outstanding achievements, but he was not satisfied with the status quo or complacent, but extensively dabbled in mathematics and botany ... Isn't this the result of his continuous surpassing himself?

There are days behind, there are people outside. Don't always try to surpass others and make yourself exhausted and accomplish nothing. Take yesterday's self as an opponent and constantly surpass yourself.

Without pride beyond one's own disability, there would be no Hawking's A Brief History of Time. How can there be a Liu Xiang 1 10 hurdles champion without exceeding one's own physique? How can China's "two bombs and one satellite" shock the world without the courage to surpass himself? ...

In a word, success is at your feet if you constantly surpass yourself.
