Meaning
This reads as a comment on self-restraint and social boundaries. It suggests that the hardest part of life is not only hard work or failure, but learning to stay within your own path, without envying, copying, or interfering with others. It lands in settings where comparison is constant, such as work, family, or social media, and a person has to keep their own pace.
