J is for Judge Not
As a writer it is easy to fall into the habit of judging yourself against the accomplishments of others. It's easy to think that others are more successful than you are. Sometimes that comes from not being able to view yourself clearly--sometimes it comes from other writers inflating their worth and implying that they are a bit more successful than they really are--or misinterpretations along the way. What I might call a booming revenue share base, you may consider mere pennies.
Guard against judging your work and your accomplishments against some real or imagined success of others.
