A lot of people focus on other people’s achievements as a measure of our own success in life. They think that there is no progress in their own lives because they fail to recognize that each person has their own journey, timeline, and challenges to overcome.
Popular Nollywood actress, Ebube Nwaguru even noted that success comes but at everyone’s pace. Despite this, there are those who put so much attention on the good fortune of others which of course, can be detrimental to their growth and development. This can also lead to feelings of inadequacy, jealousy, and even resentment.
Hence, like the popular Nollywood actress appeared to suggest, it is better to focus on one’s own progress and celebrate one’s own achievements, no matter how small they may seem.
After all, success is a personal and subjective experience and what might work for one person, may not work for another.
Here’s what Ebube Nwaguru thinks;
“Other peoples progress is not a proof that you are failing “Remember” At your own pace”.
