Have you ever felt threatened by a person who was better than you at something before?


we all like to think we're the best and are deserving of any benefits that goes along with it...but according to statistics, 70% of people say they have some kind of anxiety when someone better than them comes along..especially if it's at the workplace where a promotion is on the line...and sometimes it can be DEADLY if that person you're competing against has a better rap sheet than you which leads to common movie and tv murder themes!.

but that's just example of anxiety overload when competition arises...sports is obviously another issue where people are constantly looking over their shoulder when someone bigger and better is nipping at your heels..

so have you ever felt threatened by someone before who was better at you at something?

I will kill for a coworker who is better than me. Or a partner in general in anything.

Well, they had a weapon at the time and were really, really angry...

Pretty sure next to nobody claims that about anything, unless they're a public figure with something to back it up. Or they qualify the statement with "the best in my town or my company" so it's more realistic and subsequently less meaningful.

"Better than me"? I'm not sure I understand.

My Harvard grad boss was super cool, and I never had a problem with him.

But...

Seeing how he would tear into those that disrespected him, all without using a single curse word, was terrifying.

My fragile ego can't take the fact that some folk are better than me at things.

Someone better than me? I've yet to meet that person.
