There will always be someone who makes more money than you do. There will always be someone who is smarter than you are. There will always be someone who is better looking than you are. There will always be someone who is more talented than you are. There will always be someone who is luckier than you are. Be it money, looks, intelligence, social status, material possessions, circumstances, or anything else, there will always be someone who has more of everything.
It does not matter.
You see, I learned a long time ago that life is not a race against other people. Life is a competition with yourself. One of the greatest achievements in life is to outperform yourself and to live your greatest life possible. For me, life is an endless quest to evolve into the best version of ourselves. What matters most is the love in our hearts and the fire in our bellies. Greatness lives in all of us. It really does. However, we must all find what it is that ignites our souls and we must suffer for our dreams. In our suffering, we will find our greatness.
