everyone's success depends on everyone else's failures. Without slow, there's no fast. Without poor, there's no rich, amirite?

everyones personal version of success is unique. While the majority may mean being ahead of others, some may find success in something that isn't dependent on everyone else's failures. for example if I will be able to have a strong family once i am older, i will consider my life a success.

Yup. It's called a zero-sum game.

It's all relative
