Hey @chbartist, Greetings.
I enjoy and learn lots from your writings, also get inspired and I am thankful to you.
We make mistakes by comparing others or comparing others with ourselves, this is a waste of the intelligence that human is gifted with.
We all have own unique possibility of existence and creativity, might not all but there exists something that is completely unique than others, We should figure out our internal potential, strength that we are unknown of.
There is some positive aspect of comparing ourselves but has huge negative aspects. like if we compare it will give us somehow certain motivation to be the best among those but what we will do after comparing is not from our heart, spirit or these doings are not a passion. If we don't follow our passion then we wont have an enjoyable journey for sure, so before doing any thing or deciding it, we should compare those fellings with our passion or what we love the most.
I got to learn something new from you and that's the most important inspiration and gratefulness from you. I really get inspired by your positive attitude and a movement to create a community of positive thinkers and doer's which is the real need of this time. I would love to be in this community and learn lots of good thing from you guys. Thank you !!
