English term or phrase: compare upward
So, how can we deepen our humility? C. S. Lewis had an idea: “If anyone
would like to acquire humility, I can, I think, tell him the first step. The first
step is to realize that one is proud. And a biggish step, too.” And the second
step, continued Lewis (foretelling psychological research to come), is to
compare upward. Compare yourself with those wiser, shrewder, or stronger,
rather than with those less so. The ultimate upward comparison, he added, is
to glimpse the greatness of God and to see oneself in light of that—enabling
you to “be humble, delightedly humble, feeling the infinite relief” of having
let go of the pretensions that have “made you restless and unhappy.”

مقایسه صعودی


Explanation:
مقایسه گاهی صعودی، گاهی نزولی و گاهی هم‌سطح است. اگر انسان خود را با بالاتر از خود مقایسه کرد، این مقايسه صعودی است، اما اگر با پایین‌تر مقایسه کرد، اين مقايسه نزولي است.
