You don't have to outswim the shark, only the person you are scuba diving with.
Does this sum up your experience of The Rat Race?

But I don't care if I get behind.
People living in competition
All I want is to have my peace of mind."
If you start thinking of yourself as just a rat in a maze, you probably need to find a different job, or even career. There's more to life than drudgery.
Carpe diem!

But it says a lot about the Person first utterig this:
* friends are expendable (so freindship is about getting something not about giving)
* everything it is about me
* life is eat and being eaten (I am rather the one eating)
* I won't fight, but rather run
on the positive side:
* creativity (finding a solution oin danger)
* the Person is probably a go-getter, has the potential to be a BIG success
I am rather a friend who would give his life...but in fact I would try to fight the shark with the Sound method...
