Experience evens out over the long term, and nobody knows everything. Try to stop thinking in terms of competition, and focus on developing a specialty. Take something your peers aren't familiar with and learn it inside and out. Exchange that knowledge with them. Whenever you feel inadequate, acknowledge the feeling then consciously reframe the moment as an opportunity to collaborate--make your goal to either learn something from the person "outclassing" you or to teach that person something. In my experience, people we consider experts are so specialized that it makes them blind to fundamental things that less experienced people catch.
