Thank you so much and then how about "Don't flatter yourself yet for the relatively small achievement, compared to mine." Here "compared to mine" should be "compared to me" and the sentence makes sense to you?

I assume you don't care how rude/conceited this sounds.
Don't flatter yourself. Your achievement is small compared to mine."
Yes, here it's "mine." The "mine" stands in for "my achievement."
Don't flatter yourself. Your achievement is small compared to mine."
Yes, here it's "mine." The "mine" stands in for "my achievement."
