Comparison will steal your joy!

 

If variety is the spice of life, why do we compare ourselves to others?

In the race of life, we all begin at different starting lines. Some are born into wealthy families some are not. Some are in locations more favorable for success than others. We all have different starting lines, we all face different obstacles and we are all not going to cross the finish line at the same time. The obstacles I face are not the same obstacles you face; some of them are not even the same obstacles members of my own family face. All comparing yourself will accomplish is bring you down. In life they will always be someone better.
Getting married, settling down, and having children is not the only way to live life. Anyone can want one or more (or none) of these elements in their life. 

Can we imagine a world where everyone did the same thing around the same time? It would be monotonous and controlled. Lifestyles wouldn’t be a thing because we would all have the same one. Would this robotic, oppressive life be sustainable?
So always aim to be yourself and be wary of perfectionism. Once we free ourselves from comparisons, we forget we ever made them.
“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

    Engaging one Lipika! This is what we need to learn. But getting rid of this enemy is really difficult. No matter what, people will compare, all you have to do is be a better version of yourself and then others will follow.
