Keep Focused

If trying to accomplish a particular goal in your life it might be as you know somebody who achieved what you're working towards or it might be somebody who's still working towards the same thing as you.
The level of advancement in whatever you're working on might be slower than that of your friend, enemy or arch competition. This situation might be a de-motivating factor, you might even feel as if you are putting in more work than the other person yet they've achieved more that you have.
It's very crucial to be tolerant of your own progress and that of other people as comparing yourself to others might pull you down and even distract you from what you initially were supposed to do. 

If doing something, it might be as you wish to feel better about yourself if you attain your goal and this might be totally be about you but if you begin comparing yourself to other people you lose the sole purpose of what you intended to accomplish.
Apart from losing the purpose of why you were executing something you might also not do it to the best of your ability as you're not centering on what somebody else is doing and to what level have they achieved their project rather than concentrating on your own piece of work.
This damaging attitude driven by jealousy will slow you down further and your rival will become way ahead of you. This will further increase the damaging feelings you have.
It's crucial to tolerate other people’s progress and not be moved or affected by it as individuals are different we have different capacities and that does not mean in any way that the other individual is better than you.
Concentrating on your own goals and accomplishments will help you work more accurately giving your work or whatever you're doing more concentration producing better results.

Center on positive things in your daily life. Don’t concentrate on the things you don’t want or the errors that occur. If you tilt your thoughts to the situation at hand, then you leave no room for the apprehensive thoughts that might command your thinking.
Always visualize only favorable and advantageous situations. Use positive words in your inner dialogues or when talking with others. Grin a bit more, as this helps to think positively. If you hold on, you'll metamorphose the way your mind thinks.
Once a negative thought enters your mind, you have to take care of it and endeavor to substitute it with a constructive one. The negative thought will try again to enter your brain, and then you have to substitute it again with a favorable one.
It's as though there are 2 pictures in front of you, and you decide to look at one of them and dismiss the other. Persistence will eventually teach your mind to think positively and ignore negative thoughts.
In case you feel any inner resistance when substituting damaging thoughts with favorable ones, don't give up, but keep looking only at the advantageous, good and happy thoughts in your brain.

It doesn't matter what your circumstances are at the moment. Think positively; anticipate only positive results and situations, and circumstances will alter accordingly. It might take some time for the changes to take place, but finally they do.
