Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others.

别拿自己和他人比较，这只会降低你原有的价值。

Honestly, I don't think it is merely negative to compare ourselves with others.

The effects depend on how we react to our superiority and inferiority we get from such comparisons.

As long as we can treat them in the right way, we are certain to get some positive stimulus from them.

Always keep an modest attitude towards those who are temporarily inferior to us.

Always try to catch up with those who are superior to us.

And you know, it is natural for our human beings to become somewhat jealous for others' extraordinary achievements, especially when they are achieved by people we know.

But we must know, their achievements mostly come from their hard-working and unremitting efforts.

If we are unwilling to do the work that they have done, if we are unwilling to make the same kinds of sacrifices or put in the long and hard hours like them, we can't succeed and we just become more and more resentful.

It is true that we are not always going to succeed in our ventures, even if we put in the time and effort.

Results are never guaranteed and life has a way of throwing curve balls at us.

We should accept this reality, and we should be a little realistic, just try to be better than the one we were in yesterday.

That is enough, change needs time, and great change needs more.

I believe we can be on the greater heights we have expected.

 

The brain is a wonderful organ. It starts working the moment you get up in the morning and does not stop until you get into the office.

脑子这个器官真神奇，从你早上起床开始工作，但一进办公室它就不转了。

From Robert Frost.

It seems I am just one of such kind of people.

Every day when I get up, I hope I can deal with all of my work smoothly and perfectly.

But when I walk into my office and start my computer, I am just desperate to find that I don't know what to do and how to figure out what is important.

My brain stops working and I can't concentrate on my researches, even a little sound and movements from others would distract my attention.

Maybe I have rested for too long and my brain is rusted now.

How to make it active again and how to make it full of things that can open the treasury of achievements?

Just work, and remember that work can vanquishes all.
