Not everything that works for others can as well work for you. You are different from others, your goals and your aspirations are totally different from others. There is no way you can be what you are not. Streams and rivers are two different bodies of water, but both emptied into a sea. They both flow in two different courses still arrived at the same destination.
As human we have no ground to compare ourselves with others. Others have their own thought and aspiration, their success stories cannot be the same with yours.
Do you know that if you continue to compare your life with others, you may end up being under their shadow. The feeling of inferiority complex will be there and you will never move or rise above your contemporaries. That a lone clearly shows that comparison isn't what should come into your mind. You have to be yourself and think of how you could explore your life to the best of advantage.
So many people feel that their level of success isn't good enough and they want more. Sometime this feeling of being like other person who is so much successful is always there. Supposing you cannot meet up like the other person's demands and luxuries. What will you do? The feeling of failure will be there.
Allowing the feeling of comparison to others to infiltration your mind is not advisable and not healthy for your life and general wellbeing.
Always think of the best option and how you can succeed by doing what you knows best. You can as well draw inspiration from successful people and never try to compare your life to them. You will make it bigger in your life.
