Success in outer life is a combination of factors. It is not a judgment on one’s capacity or character. Besides each person has his or her unique destiny. Instead of comparing yourself with others, it will be much more useful to look within to find your unique strengths and temperament and interests and pursue these rather than following the standard road of material success. Such successes are often inner failures. True success is to fulfill what you are meant for.
Affectionately,
