it's not acting superior, it's being superior.

if you want to get faster at running, you have practice running, a lot.

that's how everything in life is. if you want to improve something about yourself you have to practice that thing and learn it and gain skill and experience in it.

you can pretend that isn't true all you want, fine, but all you are doing is harming yourself and ensuring your failure at life. you can also make up absurd arguments, like why ever bother running at all if you aren't going to win a gold at the Olympics! which is PRECISELY the type of thinking every drugged out loser I ever known know makes.

nobody is working you to the bone who no change for advancement. that's a choice you are making yourself.

Ah the old pull yourself up by the bootstraps adage. You can go be superior, I'll be sympathetic with those who are suffering. Enjoy yelling at everyone from your ivory tower.
