RAT RACE

Updated: Sep 6, 2020

Life is as like as nanban movie dialogue

"Life is a race. Run Run Run"

But precisely it is rat race.

human society is just like a rat theory.

Humans compete with each other like a rat competing with other rats for a piece of cheese.

This theory of rat race induces three basics questions and its sub question.

For what we race?

Why do we race ?

Who has the chance to win the race?

Let's dive into each question to understand human society in-depth



ree

For what we race?

For better life?

Every people thrive for better life.

So each of us run for our betterment. People think if we try to complete with others they might get better result on compare and contrast effect.That is true but the extended version of this competition is more human .

Competitiveness is an intuitive muscle memory of human


Why do we compete?

The answer is simple

Its just Charles Darwin theory of natural selection.

Survival of the fittest.

Infinite people competing for finite resources.

Wait.what? infinite people ?

Yes.

People are finite

People's needs are finite but

People's desires are infinite


People are replenished over very short period of time with heirs but resources are non renewable. So people compete to get max possibility of resources in life. So that they live a better life


ree



Why do we race ?

Because to judge who should get the maximum resources .

This race is race of recognition

People have formed an unwritten treaty within humanity that one who get recognized can enjoys the resources .

Recognition is nothing but remembrance .

So the more the number of people recognize the more the possibility to avail resources.


ree



Who has the chance to win the race?

The people who are remembered.


ree


Let me ask you a question?


If I ask you who is the fastest person in the world?

your answer will be with a name Usain bolt . If I ask for second or third fastest person in the world. You are not sure about your answer or never liked to remember the second and the precedence.


ree


So fastest synonyms to nothing but first.

First are always remembered.


Continuing with the question .


If I ask you who is the richest man in the world ?

mostly your answer will be Bill Gates. But he is not the current world no.1 billionaire or he is not the 1st billionaire in history of billionaires but he was the best in securing the first position for a long span from 1995 to 2017.


ree

So people always remember and recognize the first and the best.


Be the first of it or be the best of it.


To fit in these criteria , people try to secure the first or try to become the best .


Like we know the first and the best position are limited and also temporary.

So people keep on competing to this temporary limited space to get maximum resources .

recognized = resources

R requires R


ree


Conclusion of the race

Always remember Life is just a rat race.

Sometimes,we succeed

Sometimes,We fall

We fall when our run becomes our rush.


ree


Everyone has nostalgia towards recognition but

Recognition demands pain and patience

Don't rush

Take time

Gain experience

Run endless to succeed.

Get recognized.
