@Tfmonkey I can absolutely confirm that comparing oneself to other people is not the way to go. If we all compared ourselves to Alexander the Great then we would all come up short. How can any mortal man today say they achieved anything noteworthy when Alexander conquered Persia before the age of 30? Even the elites today, born into their positions of power, would pale in comparison to Alexander the Great. There are other great men, such as Marcus Aurelius, that could serve this example.
