Comparison is a very foolish attitude, because each person is unique and incomparable. Once this understanding settles in you, jealousy disappears.

It may sound simple to just suggest putting a stop to social comparisons—but the question is how do you actually stop? Here are some ways to help you stop making social comparisons.
1. Make a list of accomplishments you’re proud of. The more confident you are in yourself, the less inclined you’ll be to evaluate how you stack up against others. Write a list of your proudest accomplishments, traits, strengths, and even things you’re grateful for. This will put you in a healthier mindset, making you less likely to engage in the comparison game.
2. Become clear on what you want. When you’re unsure of what you want in life or how to go about achieving it, you can tend to feel unanchored. Become more grounded by gaining clarity as to the direction your life is going. Write out your short-term and long-term goals and steps necessary to accomplish them. Once you feel more secure in your own life, the temptation to overinvest in others will dissipate.
Theodore Roosevelt said it best when he stated, “Comparison is the thief of joy.” If you want to become your best self, unique, making your mental and physical health top priority, you must choose joy and resist the urge to make unhealthy comparisons.
Imagine a whole thought flowing through you or a train of thoughts… who passed that thought…..
Even as Pritpal sit to write this, on a special diary given to him by his daughter to express himself, his creative stuff ……..he think, What even made him choose the subject – ‘Cell – phone’ and then derive lessons learnt from it revolving around LIFE…he sometimes ponder, he sometimes wonder if all that is, is THAT IS, All his thoughts which make him, which make us, so UNIQUE….
As coming from a humble background, Pritpal always had this comparison and competitive complex built in early in his teens to excel in his studies or he lose the battle to become something in his life. The shadow of the comparison loomed with him through a long time in his mid-life career; It bothered him to look around him with continual comparison of himself with aristocrats on my social status; This raised a tendency on him to be always comparatively competitive.
Eventually along the way, he was fortunate to be touched with a tinge of spirituality, and learned put his best into what he is doing. That has brought certain shift in him. Pritpal found himself to be more calm and creative in his work. It doesn’t mean he became artist, it only means what he was doing gave him more content and satisfaction.
This has made him a distinct and outstanding person now also his work has shined. This is still amongst the hundreds of individuals he is competing against, but this does not bother him as he have found a way to shine in his life and have found eventually the way to work with my UNIQUE and distinct characteristics and eventually discovered what success really means.
