Sometimes being 1st means you have to push to
da limit. Even if it means being unscrupulous, being scheming,
being over competitive and meaning hurting ppl along the way. Many
examples of being "first" by being back stabbing or worse can be
seen in work life and even competitions at other levels.
In life, winning is not everything. There are times when people
feel better not winning than people who do win, coz they learn
more. And there are pressures of trying to be first. People
expected some to make it to da top, this gives stress to the person
involved. People not expected to be first can do their best without
having pressures of making it to be number 1.
