As you said, we compare our "worsts" to others "bests".
That is a horrible math problem. If we are to envy others' we need to envy ALL of them, their WHOLE story. Not just the shiny parts.
Every house (person) has a story and their own set of struggles often hidden. I do an entire podcast on this subject.
The only comparison we ough to make is with the person we were yesterday. That is real growth.
Thanks for your insight.
