I agree with those who say life is NOT a competition. Looking at things that way is a sure and fast ticket to constant unhappiness. There will alwyas be people who are smarter, faster, richer, prettier, etc. than you. Accept it, and move on.
Decide what things that are most important to you, and work on improving those aspects of your life.
I would also recommend making friends with these people you feel inferior to. That way you'll see they are just as fallibly human as you in their own ways, and perhaps associating with them can inspire you to improve yourself in the ways you admire them. I do that whenever possible, and my life is greatly enriched by their friendship.
