When your sense of pleasure and satisfaction are derived from comparing yourself to others, you are no longer the master of your own destiny.
While it’s impossible to turn off your reactions to what others think of you, you don’t have to hold up your accomplishments to anyone else’s, and you can always take people’s opinions with a grain of salt. That way, no matter what other people are thinking or doing, your self-worth comes from within.
Successful people know that caring about what other people think is a waste of time and energy. When successful people feel good about something that they’ve done, they don’t let anyone’s opinions take that away from them.
“No matter what other people think of you at any particular moment, one thing is certain—you’re never as good or bad as they say you are.”
