"In her book, On the Wings of Self-Esteem, Louise Hart warns: "Comparison sets us up for unhealthy competition. It drives wedges between people, creates separation, and enforces conformity." When we consistently compare ourselves with others we can end up rejecting our self ... and we follow someone else's dream instead of our own."
–– Joyce Rupp (b. 1943), American Catholic writer and speaker
