Bad guys take a newspaper, cut out certain words and reorganize them into a Ransom demand.
\nAnd we all know the newspaper did not say this.
\nThe words are taken out of context and reorganized according to another plan \/purpose \/idea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So why do we compare ourselves to others, using only<\/strong> enough data to prove they’re better than us.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There’s always someone better than you (and someone worse than you)<\/em> at whatever subject you care to mention.
\nAlways.
\nYou’re not the best at anything. Ever.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What you are<\/strong>, is a unique<\/strong> Combination<\/span>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To say “So and so is much better than me at this or that.” may be true but also totally irrelevant.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When you envy someone about something take a close look at the other stuff in that person’s personality or life.
\nYou’ll soon see that, by and large, you’re an excellent combination with only some need to change and improve, here and there. \u00a0 Just \u00a0 like \u00a0 that \u00a0 person!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Stop ransoming yourself.<\/p>\n
