Oh you are welcome, there actually "are" a lot of "nice" people out there and some very nice members here as well. It is important to come to learn that the very first place to begin is with ourselves really. It is important to also try not to put ourselves down or allow ourselves to feel inadequate if we come across others who seem to have this list you talk about. I have dealt with that all my life and I have found that if I work on myself and just work on learning an improving myself in a way that is forgiving and kind, I always make "gains".

People all grow at different rates, and we are really all unique so it is not being fair to "self" if we keep putting ourselves down because we don't happen to be in what is considered the "flow of success". Most of the people that really gave us "wisdom" were people who were "unique" and took time to "develope their separate understandings of life and human nature".

If we take time to consider our own unique qualities and step back from the "race" of what others try to "keep up with" and we learn to "accept that we are just going to be unique in someway" other people are more willing to want to know us. The reason for that is because we "all" just really want to be "ok" with ourselves and have permission to learn and even make mistakes without feeling bad or unworthy.

Success is more about learning who you are and whatever you do have that you like to do, take pride in it and in yourself while doing it. Life should not be about trying to "measure up" to what "others" think or do, it is finding the "you" that has your own unique gifts.
