How far have I got?

"How far have I got on my path?"
Actually, this question throws obstacles in the way of your development.
The Path is just a simple thing and your task is the day-to-day progression, the mindfulness and the continuous devotion.
Life always has a surprise in store for us. The one who thinks that he/she has infinite knowledge - misses the way. Every human destiny is different so nobody goes along the path of the enlightenment instead of us. This is our one and only experience - ergo all form of it is perfect and wonderful.
The person who feels that he/she takes lead on the spiritual path will lag behind others. The spiritual ego sets a bar against our development. For that very reason, we are in need of humility when we see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Likewise, if you feel anger toward yourself because you don not think much of yourself then you cannot reach the essence of your existence.
Do not push things to extremes.
The only solution is the felicitous middle between the extremes of excess and deficiency.
