Just came across this great piece from zenpencils and thought I'd share it with you guys and gals, hoping some of you may get something out of it 
I think most people are prone to comparing themselves with others from time to time.
Just take the example of this forum. Yes, we'd love to be where MJ and the other great contributors on here already are. But if you are like me, you are not there yet.
It's easy to fall victim to comparing your success, your bank account, the car in your garage, or your amount of free time to theirs. Doing that will probably result in feelings of frustration. Feelings of "I can't see me being there anytime soon".

Don't be blinded by the bright light that shines from the top of the mountain.
Use it as a helping guide to follow that way up there.
