When you find yourself in an unhealthy competition with anyone, obviously you have tagged yourself a failure and same time accepted to always be at the back because you can not be in the front and be in a competition with those at the back.
Competition is good when it is only positive, where everybody is competing to achieve and yet not in pain of another's achievements, rather than unhealthy competition, it is more pleasant to learn from the source you desire to be like, build on the source's foundation while introducing your own unique ideas to keep you on the go.
If you must mentor anyone, learn and be mentored by another, the notion of "what is there, I can do it" should rather be said with good intentions and willingness to be mentored by a fellow that has done it well before you, rather than using the above phrase to beat your chest in bitterness and envy.
Yes it is true that mentorship involves alot of time but what you should hold as a key factor is everything on Earth needs time for it to grow and evolve, submitting yourself for mentorship has never been a waste of time so far it is with the right person.
Also if you must mentor anyone, be careful not to involve in any practice that will ruin the chances you have to write your name forever in the heart of those you mentor. Listen to your followers, be accessible but not unnecessarily accessible, love the idea of sharing ideas with your disciples, even when you know how to handle somethings or less busy to handle things for yourself delegate someone to handle it while you monitor the activities of the person, in the case of any corrections, do that privately and like a father, do not abuse the emotions of your disciple, be happy if any of your disciples begins to grow on a great speed, avoid the act of trying to keep such a star under your foot in other to stop the person from overtaking you.
Finally in our own little way, be instrumental to somebody's growth.
