One day someone will show up to your suffering and permanently form an opinion of you that will piss you off. And they will think themselves to be better than you.
"I am better than you. " they will say. "And here is the evidence."
It is so easy to be pleased. Yet you will never be. Not in a world decorated with so many outstanding people. Here you are forever mediocre.
Worse than that you will never be impressed, because you will never accept that others are better than you.
The trick is to give yourself confidence points for everything you do and to compare yourself primarily to one person. Find one person who you recognize as above average and then set about beating that one person in every aspect of life. And always have excuses on hand in case there is a recession of confidence. The problem is circumstance, not you.
When you beat this one person, then you will be proud of yourself. "Here I stand, better than that one person. At least I am not that person. At least I am not that piece of shit over there." you will think.
Go somewhere like the Congo where you are better than everyone. More intelligent, richer, healthier.
Be proud to be better. You played great!
