Arrow A Thought on Being Content

"Before you can be content with yourself, you must learn to appreciate other's accomplishments."

What do you think about this quote? Is it true? If so, to what degree? Would you suggest a different rule to follow in order to be content with yourself? What I'm trying to find out is how people are content with themselves.

Thanks in advance- TheIPU

hmmm, i would disagree with this quote. i find it pretty easy to acknowledge the accomplishments of others while still being unhappy with myself. i would suggest a better way to be content with yourself is by learning to accept things as they are.
