How do you feel about helping others succeed at something you failed yourself?

An older co-worker of mine once told me how he used to apply for a job which he sensed was dedicated to an intern's relative who was actually not fitting in there. Then two weeks into the job that guy called him asking him for job-related advice. After the third question my co-worker revealed himself as the competitor who didn't get the job, and due to the many questions he sensed that guy to not fit into his job and that it was all an intern thing. That guy gave up again shortly after.

I don't have that crab mentality.
I remember encouraging some people years ago, to become like me, hell, even better than me.

I do have one regret: Some of them asked me to teach them something at the time, and I did try doing just that. But I had to move away shortly after, and it remained an unfinished business. I know at least one person who held a grudge against me for that. They really looked up to me, and when the news broke that I was leaving, they felt that I had done so selfishly, without caring about them.
If only they knew my story and the circumstances...

That just means you haven't healed. In that case, don't force yourself. We all heal differently. Just breathe.

I know that feeling. Missing out. I’ve had to remove myself from many situations in the past because of someone else’s success and the envy I felt. Oftentimes if I was absent, it’s because being there just wasn’t good for me. At least that’s how I used to be. I’m better about it now. I’ve learned to never compare my life to another because happiness isn’t about what you have. It’s about what you make.

As long as I get to sleep with their women

I could only reply, channel the life of the K2 porters. They have experienced it all. Some succeed where others fail. Yet, they do their utmost to help those who attempt to a successful ending. Life often intervenes right?

'what you can't do, teach'

I feel okay about it.

Sounds a bit like martyrdom.

It doesn't bother me

I feel good about it.

Most people that succeed are not pulled up, they are pushed up.

I actually don't helping them. I can learn in how they achieved it
