Comparing ourselves to others weakens us, lowers our self esteem and serves no positive good. thanks for being so explicit. Regards, Noel You’re absolutely right, Steve.

And what I do sometimes is compare how much I've accomplished so far in my lifetime (I'm 25) with what other people accomplished by my age. Technically I've accomplished a lot already, but there's always someone who accomplished more, sometimes even when they were years younger than me. It's hard for me to accept that doing my best should be enough. But I'm working on it.

I considered myself a complete failure for a most of my life. I went to the wrong school, met the wrong people and wasn't really encouraged by my parents. I eventually started developing a great enthusiasm for things, and then gave up, right after the first failure. I already knew, that that was expected of me. That's who I was. It took years and years of repairing. It wasn't until I read Louise L. Hay's book "You can heal your life" and the workbook that goes with it. I'm finally at a point in my life, where I am comfortable with who I am and happy with the things that I actually have accomplished. I decided to become a writer, and while the road is rocky, I'm sticking to it. :) I know I can do it. I love to write. I love to talk, and I have lots to say. And I trust that people will want to read what I have to say. GG Very true, Steve. I considered myself a complete failure for a most of my life.

"John, Don't try to be better than anyone else. Just become the best you, that you can be." That was a wise man. Happy New Year, Steve. :-) Coach John Wooden’s father said to him.
