feeling sorry for yourself – by comparing with high flyers

It’s trap — It’s really easy to feel sorry/unlucky about yourself (and the kids – poor things that could get a materially better life??). Just compare with the “high earners”.

 

Endless pain.

 

I once felt unlucky I couldn’t meet a pretty woman. That’s my #1 dream. Now I have a wonderful wife!

 

I (and wife) once felt unlucky when we had difficulty conceiving. Now we have 2 beautiful kids.

 

Somehow I never feel like comparing with older or younger peers. I mostly benchmark with Chinese guys around my age. Fundamentally arbitrary. It’s nothing but excuses.
