Measurement is the keyword of this chapter. We are constantly comparing ourselves to others, whether it is known to us or not. Our life goal should not be success but happiness. Instead of trying to be a doctor because we will make a lot of money, we should be a doctor because we enjoy it. Try thinking about it in this way: If money was not an object, what would you be doing for a career? That just deals with the aspect of money, but in life we deal with everything to compare. We have to have positive thoughts about ourselves to get anywhere in life. Yes, I do realize that the last sentence is even a measurement, which proves that comparing occurs constantly in our minds. Basically, believe in yourself, your surroundings, and all that you encounter.
Great question: if money wasn't an issue what would one do for a living? Right now Pink Floyd's classic, "Money" is playing on my computer. I guess haven't learned anything since the 1970s.
