In life, so many people want to be NUMBAR ONE. However, a lot moar people don't even bother to try to get to number 3.
What do you think it takes to be the absolute best at something?

GOD
Actually liking what you do.
PURPLE
I think you have to understand that no one can truly be the best.
But I'm in a less funny mood than usual.
determination and caffiene
The need for Virgin blood and worshipping Madonna's religion *_*
I think it takes a mixture of a lot of things. From passion to will power, you gotta have it all. I mean, the laziest guy in the world can WANT to be the worlds greatest kite flyer as much as he wants, but it'll never happen if he's lazy. Moar (you got me spelling it like you now!) than anything else, you've got to be able to dream big. People who dream about being mediocre will be just that. People who dream big, think big, and there for, are big? You know what I mean.
It's either that, or a power level over 9,000!
Are you trying to be number one on Top Blogs?
"first is the worst, second is the best, third is the one with the hairy chest!" who wants to be first??
The Pokemon theme song taught me that I have to be the very best like no one ever was, to catch them is my only test, to train them is my cause.
i like shooting for #12 less stress+more lazy= no one expect you to do anything = vegetative states be yummy
yarr
over 900.
to have no one else doing the same thing.
Effort. Dedication. Other stuff.
Woah.. Just to wish to be number one at something. I have absolutely no drive to be number one... I would def settle for number two. Or three or four or ten. And once you get to being the best... How can you STAY the best???
A lot of drugs.
desire.
practice
Inborn talent combined with effort.
talent, passion, opportunity, and 10,000 hrs of practice.
KILL THEM ALL
hard work, determination, talent, and luck.
Talent, luck and practice.
Patience.
I thought I understood this post... and then I started reading the comments. What are you talking about?
o_O
I aim for passing. :
babies.
drive, talent, skill, and being at the right place at the right time
A person can strive to be the best, but there's always someone out there who's going to be younger, smarter, more dedicated, etc.
A giant cock that doubles as a 50mm cannon.
Your power must be maximum and OVER 9000!!!!
You must seize the day by the throat and when opportunity knocks, kick down the door!!!
Anymore memes to include and still be relevant?
@npr32486 - Hahaha Kill them all. Gotta love that answer.
In my opinion though, it isn't worth it.
Absolute best? I'm not so sure.
i would rather be stellar as number 2 than a nascissistic number 1
dedication and loyalty.
and respect for the game.
YEAHHHH!!! *high fives*
I've learned that it depends on your motivation. If the motivation is TO BE #1 - you'll be sorely disappointed, over and over again. There will always be someone out there, better, richer, poorer, prettier, skinnier, funnier, trendier, more branded out, etc...
But if your motivation is to do the best you can possibly do - then it's easy to be #1. But that requires actually doing the work and trying your best.
spell checker would be a start
one is the worst, second is the best, what's third?
Gotta catch em all!
Be Extraordinary. Don't let others hold you back, have a dream and a passion and follow it. Believe in yourself and believe in hardwork. And most importantly, there will always be people who will criticize and put down your ideas and pursuits... don't listen to them (Parents included). —a fellow Xangan.
sleep
and enter the dreamland
Committment
boobs.
Spell check.
Whatever you think it takes, more than that.
not trying so hard. because then you'll just be disappointed, which will deter you from said goal.
Perseverance.
time and effort
good spelling...?
@Laryssa - I second this. So you become number one in your head.
"Best" is subjective. So all you need is delusional thinking.
Passion Luck
invent a skill of your own, that nobody else has kearned yet.
talent & hard work
patience, Talent , smart
and i hope i could be able to do more charity works for the unfortunately people around the world..i think this gives me the most satisfaction then the above all.... =)
time and competitiveness
@Supplementary - lol
ask Smitty Werben Jaegermann Jensen!
Kill the competition. Literally. Kill 'em all!
super power
Mutant powers?
Faith in God and a 'want' to be #1.
A drive to never give up and lose everyone around you because you want to reach a limit that no one has reached before. I'm not sure there is an answer because so many people do things just to do them or their doing it for someone else or they want to do it for themselves. There is also the satisfaction of knowing you are just the best.
I think it takes determination and drive. You can be determined to do something and never do it. It takes a lot, sometimes luck and skill are involved depending on what you want to be the best at...
Avid recycling.
To be the best, you must be willing to absolutely annihilate the people that are better than you. If not, do your best and be recognized for being a good person even if you aren't the best or climb the ladder to number one. One is, after all, the loneliest number, right? And two....can be as bad as one. It's the loneliest number since the number one. So, stick with number 3, people!
Pssst.
drive
Replacing the former #1
Being better then everyone else at it, of course duh.
to actually care.
being the last person alive....
Intuitive aptitude
-Sylar's original ability
Dedication. As in dedication to eliminate all the others who are better than you.
Hard-work and determination and patience.
I don't believe we've met before, however you sent me a friend invite and I've accepted. Your site gets a lot of comments, so it must mean you're doing something right, ammirite? So, it appears as you've sucked me into this mass of commenting! As for today's post:
I don't think being the ABSOLUTE best at something, is something to strive for. I think what you should be focusing on, is the best you can do. I don't mean the best you think you can do, but the best you really can do. You go as far as you think you can go, and then you push forward. For instance, I'm really quite terrible at painting, however I do enjoy it so - therefore I do the best I can, and I strive to further my knowledge, my skill, etc... so that I can grow in that medium. I think there's always going to be somebody who is better than you at something, so striving to beat them may not be realistic... but striving to beat your own record? That's something to shoot for. Once you've accomplished it? Beat the one you just created.
Desperation, and madness.
hey why do people think you are a woman?
Murder.
Well to start, be Asian.
Being numbah wun means being an eleven.
I wantz to be numbar zero
