If you could live your life like 100 times over in some kind of Monte Carlo simulation, the way I live my life, I'm always trying compete against other versions of me. So if I lived my life 100 times over and I tracked it, I want to be the most performant version of myself.

This was a scatterbrained talk...
The reason I make that point was supposed to be connected to the idea that we can’t compare ourselves to others, because we all have different genetics. Like I will never be lebron james no matter how much I practice, but I want to believe that if I changed lives with him, I could get further than him as an NBA player. Likewise, if he switches lives with me, I want to outperform how he plays my avatar.

So the best way to measure ourselves is how far we do with what we’ve been given. If there were a creator (be it religious or the human who decided on our simulation’s avatar), I want to outperform expectations so badly that they think I was a glitch in their system haha.
