I’ve given up worrying about being unaccomplished in comparison to people I find on HN. Yeah normal curves gonna have outliers. Your probably an outlier yourself and maybe this guy is further out. So what. I’m not even good enough to attend a TEDX as an audience member apparently! Oh well there’re all on YouTube, and I watched live on a repeater screen.
- emmanueloga_ 6y agoFair! I've heard the advice of only comparing myself against myself in the past, etc, I think it makes sense. Sometimes (often) I forget about all that. On a positive note, it _is_ pretty cool when I have a moment of clarity I and I manage to see accomplished people as inspiration instead of feeling behind.
- quickthrower2 6y agoThat’s a great way to think about it. And sometimes they can be a mentor too!
