Why Do I Compare Myself to Others and Feel Inadequate?

"How can one overcome the mind’s habit of comparing oneself to others, which leads to feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt? Rupert says: ‘When you identify yourself as a person, when you identify yourself with the content of your experience, thoughts, feelings, sensations, perceptions, actions, relationships . . . you will by definition be comparing yourself with other people . . . The feeling of being worse than others will be accompanied by guilt or shame or doubt or lack or inadequacy . . . If you identify yourself as being or being aware, then there’s no question of comparing yourself with anyone. Because the being of everyone, the awareness with which everyone is aware of their experience is the same awareness.’"
