Comparison steals your joy
Comparison steals your joy
You may have heard this quote or something like it a few times before, it’s an oldie for sure but I think it’s a goodie.
Have you ever considered how it might relate to you?
Well, maybe I can help you understand.
I see clients everyday who are wasting so much time worrying why they are ‘not like her’.
Or why their body doesn’t seem to work ‘that way’ or look like that.
Or maybe life is making them tired when everyone else seems to be bursting with energy.
I’m not suggesting that these examples aren’t totally true - maybe they are.
But what we forget to remember is that even though there are some things similar between us humans there is also LOTS that make us different.
We come in many beautiful shapes and sizes, with different energy and focus levels and all kinds of opposing dreams and desires.
We need many different things.
So, when you read that magazine, social post or even THIS blog post - maybe the advice doesn’t apply to you.
Because it’s almost impossible to write an article or post that is meant for everyone.
Your mind + your body = YOUR decision how to take care of them them.
And, do you know what else?
When you focus on comparison it gets you exactly nowhere.
Maybe initially you’ll feel a little spark of ‘if I do this I can be like her’ but then eventually you’ll feel let down when you find out it’s not possible.
So what do you focus on instead?
YOUR purpose (why are YOU here on 🌏).
I can almost guarantee it’s not to lose weight or look good in a bikini.
It’s definitely not to be the best at following that diet.
Underneath all that time you’ve spent wondering and worrying about how you look, I know there’s a greater reason you exist.
I bet it’s more nourishing than any thoughts you have ever had of comparison too.
Where comparison steals your joy, purpose lights you up ✨✨✨
Maybe today is the day to change your focus and discover who you really are?
Let me know if you need some help along the way, you can reach out over here when you are ready.
I’d love to help you reclaim your joy.
