Motivation is Everywhere

There is always someone doing better than you in a far worse situation.

It’s important to remember that everyone has their own unique set of circumstances and challenges, and it’s not productive or helpful to compare ourselves to others. It’s important to focus on our own personal growth and development, and to try to make the best of the situation we are in, rather than focusing on how we compare to others. It can be helpful to remember that everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses and that we all have the potential to improve and achieve our goals, no matter what our current circumstances may be.

But still…

At times, it feels natural to compare ourselves to others and sometimes feel envious or discouraged when we see someone who appears to be doing better than us. However, it is important to remember that we often only see a limited perspective of others’ lives and circumstances. It is possible that someone who seems to be doing better than us may be facing challenges or hardships that we are unaware of.

On the other hand, it is also possible that someone who is facing difficult circumstances may still be able to find ways to succeed and thrive. This is not to diminish the real challenges and struggles that people may face, but rather to highlight that it is possible to find strength and resilience even in the face of adversity.

It is important to remember that we all have our own unique paths and experiences, and it is not productive to constantly compare ourselves to others. Instead, it is more helpful to focus on our own goals and progress and to recognize and appreciate the strengths and abilities that we have. By doing so, we can find a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment in our own lives, rather than constantly looking to others for validation or comparison.

“No matter who you are, no matter what you did, no matter where you’ve come from, you can always change, become a better version of yourself.”

— Madonna

We must have witnessed situations in which a person in the worst of situations, belonging to the most humble background, is doing much better in life or is determined and confident that he will do much better in life. There have been times when I used to feel that no one will be able to endure the stress, pain, and struggles that I had undergone in my life. But then suddenly life throws at you multiple instances where you are obliged to accept the fact, there are people who are doing much better than you in the worst of circumstances. So what you need to do is to accept the fact, take motivation from these individuals who, in spite of all odds, have left a mark in the sands of time, and give your best every single day.

In conclusion, it is important to remember that there is always someone doing better than us in a much worse situation, and vice versa. It is not helpful to constantly compare ourselves to others, but rather to focus on our own strengths and progress. By doing so, we can find a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment in our own lives, regardless of what others may be achieving.

“The goal is not to be better than the other man, but your previous self.”

— The Dalai Lama
