Comparison makes low self-esteem

It is so easy to compare ourselves to others these days.

People put the best of themselves on social media, and we convince ourselves that we are seeing the whole picture.

Though the best solution is to stop comparing yourself, that’s easier said than done.

If you do fall into the trap of comparisons, remind yourself that you’re only seeing what the other person wants you to see.

Think about the things you share with others — either through social media or in real life. You’re probably not putting every failure or bad experience out there for everyone to see.

This doesn’t mean you need to judge others. Rather, it means that you can feel happy for someone else without feeling bad for yourself.

It can be a big time-waster and make you feel awful. Instead, show compassion and feel joy for others’ joy.
