Question:“On comparing yourself with others”
On comparing yourself with others
Comparison sets another person’s best day beside your ordinary one. That scale was tilted when it was made.
When the urge to compare comes, put the you of one year ago beside you instead of that person. Name one thing that has grown since then. That is the only fair contest.
Aesop’s frog puffed itself up to be as large as the ox and burst. The ox had never even noticed the frog.
