My martial arts teacher is the same height as you. Strangely, I never think of him as short, even though I'm taller than him. His power and skill are so good that to think of him as small seems kind of strange.
Also, when I've sparred with others, height is not the main issue. At least, not when people have skill. In fact, being shorter is, in some situations, an advantage.
Above I've talked about fighting. If it's true that in something so physical, that size is not the main element; which from my observations of life it isn't. Then how much more true is this in other areas of life.
