Let go of comparison and competition from "summary" of You Are a Badass by Jen Sincero
Comparison and competition are two sneaky little buggers that can sneak into our minds and wreak havoc on our self-esteem and sense of worth. When we compare ourselves to others, we are essentially saying that we are not good enough as we are. We are looking outside of ourselves for validation and approval, which is a recipe for disaster. No one else has lived your life, faced your challenges, or walked in your shoes. So why on earth would you compare yourself to someone else?Competition is another trap that can trip us up if we're not careful. When we compete with others, we are operating from a mindset of lack and scarcity. We believe that there is not enough success, love, or abundance to go around, so we must fight tooth and nail to get our share. This is a fear-based mentality that keeps us stuck in a cycle of comparison and competition.
When we let go of comparison and competition, we free ourselves from the chains of insecurity and unworthiness. We begin to understand that we are unique, valuable individuals who have something special to offer the world. We start to focus on our own journey and growth, rather than getting caught up in what everyone else is doing.
Letting go of comparison and competition requires a shift in mindset. Instead of seeing others as threats or benchmarks for our own success, we can choose to see them as allies and sources of inspiration. We can celebrate their victories and learn from their failures, knowing that we are all in this together.
By releasing the need to compare ourselves to others and compete for attention or validation, we open ourselves up to a world of possibility and abundance. We can step into our power and embrace our uniqueness, knowing that there is more than enough success, love, and abundance to go around. So, let go of comparison and competition, and watch as your life transforms in ways you never thought possible.
