How to Break Away From Social Comparison

Recent studies have shown that social media really encourages unhelpful social comparison. When I compare myself to others, what I'm really doing is comparing a point in my journey with the completely different point in someone else's journey. Focus on your strengths, write them down, use comparison as a source of inspiration. Instead of seeing people as competition, think about what they can teach you. Make a conscious decision to create an environment whether it is online or in person that makes you feel valid and make you feel worthwhile.
