One solution is not to compete -- not measure oneself by the right-tail outlier yardstick.
Some people can't really help it; it's a natural way of thinking. I think more competitive people are more drawn to EA, actually. Both competitiveness and EA are rooted in comparison.

There are a lot of things that can very much be helped by staring directly at one's ways of thinking and exploring all the other possibilities.
Fair point. Though I don't know if more competitive people are more drawn to EA -- compared to whom? To your average corporate drone or to a Wall St. trader?
