Comparison is an act of violence against the self - I Vanzant. It’s so difficult to not compare ourselves with our pairs since we are social beings and easiest way to learn is by imitation. A wonderful writing to constantly remind us to be ourselves that everyone else is taken. Simply brilliant!

Thank you! Yes, it’s often easy to compare ourselves to others, it’s just who we are. However, we should learn to not let comparison choke our wins and make it small.
