'Comparison is the thief of joy” – Theodore Roosevelt.

Do you find yourself looking at someone and envying a skill they have? Or desiring a physical attribute they possess?

Making comparisons with others is a guaranteed recipe for unhappiness unless you're the best in the world. However, you'll always be better at one thing than other people – being you.

When you accept this truth you put your focus and energy on what you're capable of now and how you can improve your own attributes. It also allows you the freedom to be more yourself so that what becomes important is what you're doing and what you're learning each day.

The only person you should work at being better than is the person you were yesterday. ?
