"I'd catch myself thinking there's no way I could do anything he does. He's a different breed. He's born different," Voogd says. That's when he realized the detrimental comparisons had to stop. "Comparison is the ultimate mystery," Voogd says.

So true. It's a bad habit I have of always comparing myself to others and it's ALWAYS the more successful, the more accomplished and well off. Go figure. If I could use that comparison as positive motivation to emulate them instead (which I do sometimes almost accidentally) it would be much different. I have to say to myself something like, "Yes, I can do that also!"
