The Self-Sabotage of Comparing Yourself to Others
Wednesday Mar 20, 2024
Wednesday Mar 20, 2024
In this week’s episode of Scaling Life, I get real about my lifelong struggle with comparing myself to others - and why it only leads to feeling inadequate and like a failure.
Episode Highlights
I explain how comparing myself to the best traits of different friends left me constantly feeling "not good enough"
I discuss how comparison between two people is mathematically invalid - we're too multi-dimensional
I share how people's natural strengths may not be your strengths and vice versa
I advise focusing on developing your innate talents rather than weaknesses
I urge listeners to get clear on their own priorities over external markers of success
Quotes from Me
"You're comparing yourself to the sum of others - not any one person. Because Anne didn't have Sophie's exercise habit and Sophie didn't have Peter's career."
"We compare our messy insides to others' shiny externals - no wonder we feel inadequate!"
