There is so much pressure to be thin, and you constantly compare yourself to others. But confidence is something that comes with age and experience - it has to be earned along the way.

Cherie Lunghi

Don’t compare yourself to others. That’s when you start to lose confidence in yourself.

Will Smith

When you compare yourself with others in matters of wealth, position, and health, you should look at people less favoured than yourself. When you compare yourself with others in matters of religion, knowledge and virtue, look at people who are better than yourself.

Ibn Hazm

Many of our feelings of satisfaction or dissatisfaction have their roots in how we compare ourselves to others. When we compare ourselves to those who have more, we feel bad. When we compare ourselves to those who have less, we feel grateful. Even though the truth is we have exactly the same life either way, our feelings about our life can vary tremendously based on who we compare ourselves with. Compare yourself with those examples that are meaningful but that make you feel comfortable with who you are and what you have.

David Niven

Go deeper than love, for the soul has greater depths, love is like the grass, but the heart is deep wild rock molten, yet dense and permanent. Go down to your deep old heart, and lose sight of yourself. And lose sight of me, the me whom you turbulently loved. Let us lose sight of ourselves, and break the mirrors. For the fierce curve of our lives is moving again to the depths out of sight, in the deep living heart.

D. H. Lawrence

Having goals can be useful, but don't lose sight of how great you are and how much you can help yourself and others right now.

Tara Stiles

The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.

Mahatma Gandhi

Rather than compare yourself to others, compare your present progress with your potential.

William Cranch Bond

The downs are the times when you lose sight of who you are and that happens along the way sometimes...Writer's block when you doubt yourself and you get insecure.

Lights

There are always going to be things you don’t like about yourself or reasons to compare yourself to others, but once you realize that you only get one you, it’s best to just love yourself.

Naya Rivera

Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding. The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others. You must be the change you wish to see in the world.

Mahatma Gandhi

It’s not comparing yourself with others who call themselves Christians. Compare yourself to the Scripture.

Paul Washer

The surest way to lose at any endeavor is to quit.

Morgan Freeman

Give up defining yourself - to yourself or to others. You won't die. You will come to life. And don't be concerned with how others define you. When they define you, they are limiting themselves, so it's their problem. Whenever you interact with people, don't be there primarily as a function or a role, but as the field of conscious Presence. You can only lose something that you have, but you cannot lose something that you are.
