Inferior and superior

I have often come across students who consider themselves as 'inferior' in comparison to certain 'brilliant' students. Why is that so? I can present this with a suitable example: There is a person named 'X' who scored excellent marks in a particular exam. There is a person named 'Y' who didn't score that well. A common statement that 'Y' makes: Because of 'such' students( making a gesture towards 'X') we don't get admission in institutions. 

Two things that can be inferred from this statement: Either the person 'Y' doubts his own capabilities because of a certain reason or he feels jealous. These are my assumptions. This is a very common experience that most of us must have faced in our lives. The feeling of jealousy is so common. It's natural and as human beings we do feel jealous of each other. But a question that lingers in my mind is: Why is that certain people don't work hard at the first place and then make remarks that reflects underestimation of their own capabilities?

I don't know the answer to this question. But a vague guess that forms in my mind is lack of confidence. I am sure there must be other answers to this question. Without going too deep into this matter, I just want to convey to my readers that talks are infinite. Don't let your inner voice be blown away by the judgements of others.  If the confidence within yourself is getting degraded due to external jeers, you would always consider yourself as inferior and will never be able to highlight your potentiality to the world.

According to me, solution to any challenge is belief in yourself. Whether it is cracking up good marks in exams or winning a tournament, belief can definitely boost the magnitude of your success. Don't let anything to stop you from achieving something that you want to achieve in life. This will turn you into a better individual, stop you from making unnecessary remarks, will give you an insight of what others are facing and will enable you to look at those who are doing better than you as not merely your competitors but also as people by whom you can get more ideas and inspiration.
