It’s that simple.

For the most part of my life, I have felt like a failure. No matter what achievements I had accumulated, they were never enough to make me feel good about myself. Lately, I have been working hard to understand why I feel like that. And things have been changing for me.

I finally understood the only thing we need to know about successful people.

A successful person doesn’t care about others.

A successful person doesn’t care about others when they are determining what success is for them because this is a particular/unique definition.

A successful person doesn’t care about others when they are putting in the work to achieve success because they know that what might work for other people doesn’t necessarily work for them.

So they do their own thing.

Of course, that successful people do get inspiration and motivation from others for the external (success definition, that materialises in life achievements) and the internal work (the work to get there/ habits/mindset), but at the end of the day, they know that success is a personal journey, and they need to trust themselves to get there.
