I agree that comparing your numbers to others can make you crazy. (It may, however, be inspirational to see some of those numbers-- just don't allow it to create unreasonable expectations.) I will say that my own sales numbers matter to me quite a lot (the oldest kid will be going to college in a year, yikes), but no one should get into writing only to make money. Writing is something I do because I have to, and because it's fun. Making money at it is a nice side benefit, though.
