It's great to hear that man! though you don't need to measure or try to be as good as anyone, just try to be better than yourself. with each step you will get closer to your goal, and when you get it, set a new one. the important thing here is that you gotta keep moving. not the start or the finish, but the way itself! and as far as I can see, you're walking the right path! Keep it up and you'll reach as far as you want!!
