The Destructive Habit of Comparing Ourselves to Others -Vol. 505, July 11, 2019
It seems we humans are excellent at thinking of ways to feel bad about ourselves. One of the worst habits we can have working against us is that of comparing ourselves to others. For one thing, one can never really understand what another is doing in their lives.
For example, over the years, I have had many young women come to me because they had yet to achieve some vocational goal or find themselves a mate to marry. They were always comparing themselves to their friends or family members wondering what was wrong with them.
Let me tell you something really important here: Until you walk in another’s shoes, you have no idea what that person’s life is like. You have no idea how happy or unhappy they are in that relationship you are believing is perfect. You have no idea the amount of school work that had to be done to get those wonderful grades. You have no idea how many hours went into building that successful business and all the close calls that were involved in keeping it liquid in assets.
I know for myself from being able to see into others most personal lives given the work that I do, that most of the fluff folks see on the outside, has little to nothing to do with the reality behind closed doors.
So, what do you do? Easy enough: compare yourself to yourself only. Look at those things that you have been able to achieve over the years. All the challenges that you have overcome. Then look to the goals that you want to achieve and work on them a little each day. Because you are the only one who creates your future the way you want it.
Here’s another piece of information for those who feel they need another to make them complete. No one out there can fill you up, completing you. This is something that each of us must learn to do for ourselves first. Be the partner you want to meet, and you will have an easier time attracting someone who is worthy of your time and emotions.
