Sometimes we like to compare our progress and life’s achievements with others. No matter how successful you are, there will be someone else betteer than you - who looks like she’s getting where you want in a faster and easier pace.  Maybe she is.  Maybe she isn’t.  But who cares?   Focus on your own achievements and work to develop your skills and talents to their full potential.  I’m a believer of competing with yourself - your short term goals should be based on today’s accomplishments.  If you have reached Point A today, make Point B your next objective, focus on improving yourself and don’t worry about the other guy next door.
