We all come from different circumstances.
Here’s why that matters for your mental health.
We can scroll for a hot minute on social media and find interesting people doing cool things. They seem to have it all together and are way ahead of us.
“Why bother?” we think, as we can’t get there.
But, “where is there?”
And how do we even know how they’ve gotten there.
You can see someone that has a thriving business but did they get a lucky break with their first client?
You see someone going “all in” and quitting their job but do they have a spouse at home footing the bill for living expenses?
You see someone “crushing it” online but did you witness the years of effort they put in behind the scenes, in the shadows, as a nobody, to get to this place of prominence?
Stop looking at others and comparing yourself to their lives because not only is it not relevant, it’s not real.
Their life isn’t your life. Their circumstances aren’t your circumstances.
Want to become a different person than you are today? It starts with acting differently today.
It starts with taking care of you and your wants. Whatever others have means nothing.
So what do you want?
Most likely it’s vastly different than what you are witnessing online.
