I also often see little brothers and little sisters do well because they spent years having to (and badly wanting to) catch up to their older siblings and their friends. When you’re someone’s younger sibling, you often find yourself chasing after their dreams, being picked last, playing against older, stronger kids—all of which is good for you in the long run. From a young age, little brothers and sisters start at a disadvantage: they have to improve and constantly chase others, and they understand immediately what motivation means. All that because they seek acceptance. They must.
