Comparing Ourselves to Others

Most people like comparing themselves to others—seeing another’s superiority and compared it with theirs—although they must have been told that everybody has its own superiority and deficiency before.

For some people, that habit could be a positive thing. Those people can take it as a self-motivator. They improved themselves because they wanted to be a better person than the one they compared to.

Unfortunately, the others cannot do the same. After they compared themselves to another—their friend, for example—they became jealous and they tried to find their friend’s deficiency. They often felt jaunty by knowing their friend’s deficiency, and they then thought that they were better than them!

That was pretty bad. It’s better tried to find their own superiority than to find people’s peccadilloes. Finding people’s deficiency can only broke up relationships while the other way can take them as a better person.
