How does Darwinism matter to me ?

I think Darwinism worked a lot as a way to encourage people to develop themselves, to become a more fit being to survive through the everyday challenges and competition we face. Living a lot of my life in South Korea which is a highly competitive society I guess I always had that idea that I should be more diligent or efficient and should not be lazy work hard and strive towards excellence and be a better being to ultimately be able to fit in and survive successfully in the world we live in. Especially as a developing country, Korea is always talking about this sleeping less and dong more work efficiently. It occurred to me? In what sense does it mean to be more fit in order to survive? Is it being competitive and refraining from what we want from life ? Is the ultimate ideal of the Darwinism in our society be a person who can be less human ? I guess this is a state of mind but does portrait a concept than underlies in every area we live in. Being the better one. Have to better than the other in order to avoid falling back and in order to survive successfully. I always think that people are infinitely precious and valuable because they are human being but at the same time we live in the society that always would present the concept of Darwinism ' Survival of the fittest ' .
