From any vantage point you will always have a horizon. A place you'd like to be but are not. There will always be someone better that personifies your horizon. I've found it is helpful to only compare myself to where I have been, where I have come from, the progress I've made. This is encouraging and positive. Comparing yourself to your target will always yield a negative and discourage your efforts. I use the horizon as my aim for motivation but reserve comparison only to where I've been.
