Dont feel bad
There are certain people we see on a daily basis with an extraordinary power or talent. The very feeling which comes from within when we see these creatures is 'when he can do it, why can't I'. The problem with this feeling is that, it gives you a hint of failure even before you understand what you're going after.
Some people just do certain things really good because of their past experiences. For instance, a person gets a good job and learns a lot in a matter of months, the whole outlook changes and it's hard to even believe that a person can go through a change of such proportions...likewise, if you spend quality time with a person from aviation industry for a few months, your dressing sense will change for the better and you would have gone through a paradigm shift (Oh k! Ugly Betty is an exception ;-)). We are what we explore/experience, just like you are the company you keep. If you stay with smart people all the time, their smartness is gonna get rubbed on you and eventually you become one of them. The same applies to any other attribute.
Dont feel bad that the other person can do certain things a lot better than you can do because it's not an innate talent or anything, there is no question of ability here ;-P, it's just that you have experienced something different from what he has.

If you want to see yourself doing good at something, surround yourself with people who are good, if not great at it. It's just a matter of time, your gonna be just like them or even better.
NOW I KNOW WHY I DONT DO WELL IN EXAMS ;-) (Coz I've never been with any studious guys a.k.a nerds who crave for scoring in these exams)
