'Being the best' is a modern idea. It is a popular delusion.
Such an idea is repulsive to the tai chi student. The art is about self-awareness.
Harmonising self and other.
It is about finding peace with existence. Not conquering it.
Wanting to be number one is the opposite of this.
Ambition requires greed and insensitivity. It promotes the ego and inevitably entails conflict.
