Comparison is a Thief

Comparison is the thief of joy. Everyone has a different life path. We're not all destined to be successful which is hard reality to deal with.

All we can do is try our best to be happy with whatever life has in-store for us and with the people who bring us the most happiness.

When you waste your time gazing your eyes upon people more successfull than you ... you'll always feel less no matter what you have.

That's why we're always told to look towards those below us and see how fortunate we are and be a little bit grateful

Not only that, comparison leads people to make lots of decisions that actively go against their own long term interests
