Why You Should Compete With Yourself More Often | Aaron Wang | TEDxYouth@GranvilleIsland

Self competition is like a marathon. The story of how I dealt with my teeth brushing showed how important it is to introduce a little self-competition in our life. We all have things we need to work on, and we all have things we’re great at. Avoid the temptation to ignore what we struggle with - instead, work to make it better. If you do, you’ll become a more well-rounded person. “Every kid starts out as a natural-born scientist.
