Batchmate posting Dubai pics while I do emergency duty.

Checked his roster 3 years ago.
Same as mine today.

Comparison is suicide.

His Chapter 20: Three clinics, Dubai vacation
My Chapter 5: Night duties, pending EMIs

But I didn't see his Chapter 5:
Sleeping in hospital storage room.
₹30,000 borrowed for rent.
Wife threatening divorce.

He's not lucky. He's just 15 chapters ahead.

That senior surgeon you envy?
Ate one meal daily for 2 years as a junior.

That colleague with the BMW?
Took local trains for a decade.

You're comparing your struggle to their success.
Your beginning to their middle.
Your raw footage to their highlight reel.

Stop scrolling through their Chapter 20.
Focus on writing your Chapter 6.

The only comparison that matters:
You vs. yesterday's you.
