“No runner ever won a race buy looking over his should and demeaning the competition.”
— Les Brown

Simplified Meaning:
If you want to win at something, you need to stay focused on what you're doing, not worrying about other people. Imagine you are running in a race. If you keep looking back to see where others are, you'll slow down and might trip. This means you lose focus on your own path. Instead, concentrate on doing your best and keep looking forward. For example, if you're studying for a test, don't waste time being jealous of friends who might be ahead. Just keep working hard yourself. This way, you stand a better chance of succeeding.
