Don't compare yourself to others. That's a game you cannot win; you can only lose.
Every person that you run into in your career knows something that you don't, or knows it better than you. If you are prone to feeling inadequate, you will never be able to look at people and not see areas that they know better than you. That's why comparison is a game that you can't win. But the thing is, some of them are doing the same to you. They see the areas that you know better than them, and they may be feeling inadequate too.
Instead, look at your situation as one of great privilege. You get to learn from people who know more (at some things) than you do. You get paid to learn from people who know more than you do. You get paid to learn things that make you more valuable.
Enjoy that privilege. Embrace the opportunity. Soak it up. Learn as much as you can from those people.
