    Great column from FS alumni, Ingrid Moyle today on the problem with comparing yourself to others in business.

    As much as I love social media (hold your fire!) I think it can be a real issue here, don't you think?

    What are some of the questions/thoughts you can use when you catch yourself thinking everyone else is doing a better job than you?

    I really struggle with this article, besides being very high level non meaning ideas, just based on copying your competitor, who you believe (note I said believe) are successful.

    I would really love to know what her thoughts on success really are, I have my suspicions based on her opening paragraphs. In which case is it really relevant to 90% of the population because I think everyone's idea of success varies.
