Comparison… when I think of that word, it only carries bad connotations. Comparison (especially self-comparison) usually means that I am somehow worse than the person or thing that I compare myself to. Why though? Why do so many people feel the need to put themselves down? The need to have affirmation of being “wrong” or bad. Let me tell you, I don’t know why we do that. As every negative emotion, an upward comparison also serves for us to know where we are in life, to not make mistakes and to not fall behind. And, as always, there is a very thin line between just the right amount and too much. In this episode, I am trying to tell you how I think comparison (or negative self-comparison) can be handled and I am trying to encourage you not to pity yourself too much 🫶🏼 I hope you enjoy! And please let me know how you handle comparison, because as you might hear, I am a little bit lost.
