Keeping score of old scores and scars, getting even and one-upping, always makes you less than you are.
None of us are really dumb and none of us are really smart. We're in the middle.
My success has been something I've worked a long time at and it's been a gradual process. I compare it to the idea of someone losing a lot of weight over a period of a few years. You don't really notice the weight loss overall but if you compare photos from then and now there's a big difference.
