Success, accomplishment is some thing that makes us dream every now and then. That is the simple truth!
Everyone intentions on this earth involves attaining something great as long as he/she is alive on this earth and includes attaining their unimaginable goals. Nevertheless, all of us progresses at our personal momentum.... some start achieving at a very young age and while some will have to wait till they are getting older. Every human being is unique we're completely different from others but at some stage we would be tempted to start comparing ourselves to others most especially those that are doing better. It’s something that's absolutely common within human beings.
Comparing ourself To Others Is obviously a Trap
It appears normal that you will compare your self to people who have been more successful at a given time than you. Indeed, we usually seeks to aim higher that's why we compare with those that have achieved their goals. By making those comparisons, that's when troubles will begin.
You will find out that a number of your friends or people you taken into consideration to be of the same level when it comes to achievements in the past are completely better than you now. They have a better home, maybe a very expensive car, a better wife or a better husband…..Once you have made this sour observation, that is when you will start asking your self the some unreasonable question like
“What have they done that I haven't done better and they have accomplished more?"
After you have tried finding answer to the question and you couldn't find it or you didn't find a satisfactory solution then you may begin studying the behavior of those people or friends you were comparing yourself just because you want to be like them.
That's when the intention to Become Someone Else sets in.
You will start wasting the precious time you have to achieve something and become better on trying to study another person because he was more successful at that time and sometimes we are usually wrong we might think the other person is better but you don't know what he's battling Secretly.
Let's assume the person was doing better, was always on expensive clothing's, expensive cars always helping others but you that is still struggling will now go further to start wearing expensive clothes and helping those that should be helping you. By doing so you would have come across those that should have helped you but you were not yourself.
Final thought
We are different, unique, extraordinary the way we are don't try wasting your precious time to be like someone else. You can be better the way you are
That's why people say Life is a marathon and not a sprint!
Take things easy, don't be in a rush, learn from your failure, adjust to changes, nothing like shortcut, move at your pace. A race will surely no matter who comes first.

Before there are times that I compare myself to others, but now although I can see that they are better, I just pray for them and improve myself too; not as jealousy but inspiration :)
