‘Yeah but I’ve got more Instagram followers’
Do you do this? Do you cling to one aspect when comparing yourself to others?
‘Yeah they may be in better shape than me, they may have more money than me but I’ve got a better relationship with my family.’
That small victory to last forever as a source of comfort.
‘Yes they may have won the grand prix but we came first on Rainbow road!’
To be clear I don’t have a solution to this, I’ve just noticed it.
‘Yes he went on to become the best rugby player in Ireland but I started ahead of him when we were 9!’
It’s probably better not to compare yourself to others at all but if you are, you don’t have to make excuses for where you are or find areas to draw confidence from.
You’re a work in progress like everyone else.
