Is success of others making you feel like a loser?
Most of the time, people see their success or failure by comparing them to those who are either ahead of them or behind. If they see many people behind them, they feel very successful while if they are the one's left behind, they feel like a loser. Whether you are ahead or behind, you success can only be measured by your own life so what truly matters is only your own achievements of life.
Very few people use their own life as marker of their success. So even though a person might have everything they wanted to achieve, they are unable to feel happy about it if others have also achieved the same. This only brings disappointment, anxiety and added pressure because you are not trying to achieve your goals but defeat others.
Never see your success in someone's else's defeat. Success is about celebrating your own achievements, not someone else's loss.
