We all don't have to have the same results to be considered a success

I once heard someone say that "you should not compare your chapter 1 with chapter 10 of somebody else's book".

This is such excellent advice. We so often make the mistake of comparing ourselves to other persons. But guess what.... You've got your own story, your own struggles and you're going to have your own triumphs to.

If you're making baby steps toward your goal, you'll get there before you know it. But you'll never feel like you've gotten anywhere when you compare yourself to others. Use other peoples stories as inspiration. Never let it be a burden.

I will summarize these thoughts nicely with another quote "Measure yourself against who you were yesterday, not who someone else is today!"

To your Success.... Cheers!

Shawn

Very good quotes Shawn. Comparing ourselves to other is never a good idea! We all do things differently and at different pace!
Great post!

Very true.... Too often people get discouraged by making comparisons to what they see others doing. Its a good reminder to work at our own pace, make our own progress and celebrate our own victories....Thank you Sheila!

Very important point. Comparisons with others are dangerous and unfair. Know who you are and measure your progress with where you've come from.
