I think what it means is don't think of yourself as 'beneath or better' than anyone else. I'll break it down and elaborate.
In the first part where it says:
"When you meet someone better than yourself, turn your thoughts to becoming his equal" I take it to mean if you think that person is better than you, then you need to mentally become his equal, and you will be his equal. The power begins in your own mind to be just as good as anyone else.
In the second part where it says:
"When you meet someone not as good as you are, look within and examine your own self" I take it to mean if you think you are better than another person, then you need to search your own self and realize you are no better than anyone else. The duty to realize you aren't better than others begins in your own mind.

Psychologists examine individual differences to understand how people vary in their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Its hard to control. But you can think and self examine yourself with thoughts and try and convince yourself to ignore what bothers you if its not a big thing.

Some ways to remain positive when one is thinking that life sucks is to examine your situation. What is causing you to have these thoughts? Always remember to never give in to the urge to harm yourself because that can lead to many bad things.

A good starting point might be to examine the characters and determine what their similarities and differences are. You might even want to make a list of them if you're new to writing or you generally have trouble organizing your thoughts before writing a paper. Subsequently, you can examine these similarities and differences to develop your own thoughts on them, such as how they characterize the relationship between the characters, how they affect the plot of the story, or how they underline an important idea that the author may have wanted to convey to the reader. The most important characteristics to analyze are the characters' thoughts, aspirations, and personalities. Your thesis should relate all of these things to the thesis of the novel itself, if at all possible.
