If a student repeatedly compares with others and becomes disappointed, what is a better self-management step?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Compare with one's own past progress and focus on improvement
Comparing oneself constantly with others can overlook different starting points, resources and learning speeds. Comparing present performance with one's own earlier performance gives a more useful measure of growth and suggests the next improvement step. This does not mean ignoring others' good ideas; it means avoiding jealousy and protecting motivation.
