How can I keep from comparing myself to others. I try and try and?

Question:

just cannot seem to do it. I see people I am friends with and know be successful as doctors and lawyers and teachers and I am a day care provider or somtimes called a toddler teacher. I feel like I am at the bottom and just can't seem to make myself feel equal to these other people. I love what I do but seems that I feel inferior to them. What is a way to get out of this stupid attitude. Could I just be depressed? I am college educated and know I am smart and my day care job is in the school system so I have great benefits and retriement and summers off and paid year round.

Answers:
You know what? We've all felt the same way at some point in our lives. I overcame that feeling concentrating on what I like and setting personal goals. In my case, my goals were mostly financial, maybe yours are different. I set myself long term goals, then I divided them into short-term and mid-term goals so I was able to see progress.

The point of this is that it makes you focus on your goals without letting your surroundings sidetrack you. You already have what it takes to succeed, you're college graduated and you love what you do, that's crucial. Focus on your goal(s) and once you start noticing progress, I ASSURE you that you will care less and less about superfluous things like feeling inferior or "feeling at the bottom". Then, you will become someone who can actually inspire other people. That happened to me and I'm sharing it with you...have you ever seen the movie Pay it forward"?

Best.

A degree does not give you more or less humanity.

Degrees and titles are just language constructs. They are not real.

That is just another illusion created to divide humans into categories. Their purpose is to identify professions in a world that is obsessed with things and money. Neither of which are required for happiness.

Think of all the good you do for individuals that so many others need to paid for.

You bring goodness to your life. It is up to the others to bring goodness into theirs.
