In the example, you’re comparing yourself to others, by matter of outcome. And getting upset in the process.

Instead let’s say you stick to the process. You investigate why you failed. Parallel parking? Okay, fuck that. I’m gonna parallel park my mom’s van 10x a day when I get home from school and not fuck that up next time.

Now you’ve learned to humbly overcome failure rather than get emotional about comparing your outcome to that of others.
