Thanks. The horrible thing is I came here to say that sometimes I find a project that I did a year or two ago and end up feeling shallow and dumb.

  You will be surprised how much you know. Comparing with others is almost always a losing game. Trust me because I do this a lot myself. There is always someone whom you want to be like. But remember there are a lot of people who want to be like YOU. So just focus on yourself and keep becoming a better version of you and most importantly, keep an eye on your Goals whatever they may be. Remember that there is a cost to everything. You may look at someone and say "Wow they are so smart or successful or whatever". But do you know what they don't have or what they truly desire ? You will never know. May be what they truly desire, you have it.

  Embrace that feeling but reframe it. It means you've learned something and grown since you did that project a year ago. If you looked back on work you did five years ago and didn't see room for improvement ... you've had no growth in your skills and experience.

    This. Life is a constant process of reframing.

  Try being a photographer. Work I delivered just a couple of years ago - or sometimes even months - makes me cringe. Those are someone’s once-in-a-lifetime event that you now think looks terrible and that you proudly posted to your social media accounts. That’s gotten better for me in recent years, but I suppose that means I’ve somewhat plateaued. Either way you can’t win.
