As others have said, try not to compare yourself to others. You could take inspiration from others, and shape up your own path. You will always lag behind if you follow someone else’s path. If you make your own path, then you might be able to walk side-by-side with others. An analogy would be in starting a new business where you wouldn’t want to directly compete with established businesses, so you would add your own twist or handle a niche uee case instead.
