137 – Comparison is the Thief of Joy

Episode show notes

Have you tried opening up Facebook and noticed someone’s amazing vacation, or the new car or house they’ve bought, or the wonderful celebration with their loved ones, and just felt worse about yourself?

If yes, then you’re slipping into comparison, something we all do.

All these unfiltered comparisons only lead  to insecurity, fear, self-doubt, and negative beliefs.

The moment we compare ourselves to others, especially the things we see on social media, we steal from the joy that’s always available to us.

As Theodore Roosevelt said, comparison is the thief of joy.

Today, I’ll give tips and advice to help you get unstuck from the comparison trap.
