Everybody likes a winner，and there are always people ready to cheer for a good winner．But who has ever heard a song for the man who comes in second? So this is in praise of the almost winner，the nearly champion，the next to the biggest，the second best．This is the song of Mister Two ．

You hear unflattering names for Mister Two “Alsoran”，they call him，and “runner-up”Names that make you think of a fellow who couldn’t quite make it．Don’t let that fool you．Ask the winner of any race how good a man Mister Two is．He will tell you it’s Mister Two who made him run so fast，Mister Two is pressing hard at his heels threatening always to overtake and pass him．

Ask the salesman who won the contest and what kept him plugging after hours，looking for extra order．Ask the directors of the big company why they keep changing their product，seeking the new equipment，the added advantage．What drives them ? What keeps them hopping? It’s the salesman with nearly as many orders．It is the company with the product almost as good．It’s Mister Two．

In this country，we’re proud of the quality of our champions．Our big men come very big．Our fast men run very fast． Our wise men are the wisest and our greatest men are the greatest that a country could hope to be blessed with． And why is that? Couldn’t it be because great Mister Two’s growing naturally in a land where the race is always open and everybody can run ? So this is for you，Mister Two．This is your song．This is for all the days you tried for first，and came in second．It’s for the nights when you wonder if you ought to go on trying，since nobody seems to notice…

We notice，Mister Two．We know the score．Winner or not，you’re a natural champion．There couldn’t be a race without you，Mister Two．

You’re rushing to work and a man ahead of you collapses on the sidewalk. Do you stop to help? In a study of by-standers, it was found that some people avert their gaze and keep on  walking rather than stop and get involved.
“There is a tendency to decide that no action is needed.” says a psychologist. “The first thoughts that pop into your mind often keep you from offering help. In order to take action, you have to work against them.” Here are some common thoughts that might prevent you from helping.
● Why should I be the one? I’m probably not the most competent person in this crowd. You might think someone older or with more medical knowledge should offer assistance.
● What if he doesn’t really need my help? The fear of embarrassment is powerful; no one wants to risk looking foolish in front of others.
● No one else looks concerned- this must not be a problem. We can follow the people around us, but most people tend to hold back their emotions in public.
“If you spot trouble and find yourself explaining inaction, force yourself to stop and evaluate the situation instead of walking on,” says the psychologist. “Then retry to involve other people; you don’t have to take on the entire responsibility of being helpful. Sometimes it’s just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying, ‘It looks like we should do something.’ Or asking someone if an ambulance has been called and, if not, to call for one. Once you take action, most people will follow you.”
