The Obsession of Comparison

There is someone out there who is better than you.

There is someone out there whom you are better than.

If you live your life always obsessing about those who are better than you, you will lack contentment.

Also, if you live your life obsessing about those you are better than, you will invite pride.

The goal ought to be to live life away from these obsessions and instead focus on your path.

Trust God that you are created perfectly. You will find that self-improvement is easiest and most effective when the goal is not to necessarily be better than others.

Your path is the only one you were meant to walk.
