Don't worry about what other people have, what you deserve, or if you're better than them (via @artypapers)

There's no global standard that determines what people deserve. Don't worry about what you have and think other people should or shouldn't have. The world isn't fair and people you don't like or you think aren't talented will be successful whether you like it or not. You can only control what you want and how you feel about what you have. Any thought you waste worrying about others is one you aren't spending learning or doing something new.

Never think you're better than anyone else. You're not and someone else's choices are just that, their choices. You might have done things differently but ultimately that doesn't make you superior, it makes you different. Thinking you're better only makes you a worse person whereas learning from someone's mistakes will only make you stronger.
