On a universal scale no human even matters that much (maybe cumulatively we can make a dent at some point), we are insignificant, and i mean that about even the best that humanity has to offer. So really, whether you are better than others is meaningless in the face of time, eventually no one will remember you let alone the fact that you are better or worse than others. In light of this, i suggest you don't compare yourself to people period. And the notion of success is not a good metric, you can be succesful and unsuccesful along multiple dimensions at the same time. You can be rich and miserable, poor and happy. You can have a beautiful family who falls apart because you neglect them while working 90 hr weeks to be "succesful".
