How to Break Free of Comparisons with Others.
Here are some world’s best tips to stop comparing with
others.
A1.
It starts with a decision – a decision to live your own life, and
be your own person. That is, respect and value who you are. Believe in your
personal choices and decisions. Don’t live your life to please somebody else.
A2.
Try and grasp the fact that we’re all very different and we all want and value
different things. It’s perfectly OK to be someone who’s
athletic, or someone who wants to do well in school, or someone who wants to
have a great career, or someone who is noticed for their beauty and style. Just
don’t be swayed by the opinions of others, or give up your dreams because
they’re criticised.
A3.
Understand that we all have different beginnings,
and different advantages, and life experiences. You can’t compare your journey
with anybody else’s - your path and your journey is specific to you. (Also, you
may have overcome enormous obstacles to get to the place you are at today.)
A4.
Take the time and effort to find out what you like, enjoy, get a kick from, or
are passionate about. It may help if you travel, or try spending time with
people who are different from your current social group.
(That may help you discover other parts of who you are – which you weren’t
aware of till you left your group behind.)
A5. Think
about the people you tend to hang around. Do they tend to pass
comments, or be highly critical? If they do, it may be hard for you to simply
be yourself (as you know that they will judge you, and talk about you, too). If
that is the case, you may want to change your group, or try to develop some
other, different, friends.
