"You should never say to a child ‘Why can’t you be like so-and-so’ or ‘You did that so much better than…’ It doesn’t build competitiveness; it builds rivalry and resentment, and often leads to people giving up. In the same way, you should never compare yourself to anyone else: ‘I’m so useless – I can’t do it as well as so-and-so…’ or ‘I wish I were like…’ You are your own unique being with your own unique abilities, strengths and opportunities. Celebrate that."
