CELEBRATE WHO YOU ARE !!!
So finally 2nd semester results are out and my friends over here are like “chalo pass to ho gaye!”
Some of them were celebrating and rest others were just sitting sad! I always wonder how can these numeric values affect someone’s mind so much!!!
The problem starts when we start comparing ourselves with every other human being on this planet! Why do we do this ???
Let us consider an example:
Suppose i got 87% and my friend got 67%. Now she will definitely feel bad because she got less marks than me! But she felt bad because she compared herself with me! You should keep in mind that your gifts and talents and successes and contributions and value are entirely unique to you and your purpose in this world. They can never be properly compared to anyone else.
Comparison brings negative feeling like jealousy, hatred, inferiority etc.
Comparison doesn’t actually help you accomplish your goals but It makes you feel insecure!
As Steve Furtick explains, the reason we struggle with insecurity is because we compare our behind-the-scenes with everyone else’s highlight reel!
In this game of life,if you waste your time comparing yourselves with others you will never reach a point where you are better than others in every way.
When you compare yourself with others you may become better than them but not the best!
Instead of trying to be as good as or better than others, focus your energy on being the very best version of yourself.
Don’t waste your time living someone else’s life!
The goal of life is not to be better than 50% of the other people on the planet . The goal of life is to be the best you that you can possibly be.
Realise life is not a competition and nobody is perfect on this planet.
As humans, it is in our nature to compare ourselves to others. But nothing good ever comes from it. So let’s stop comparing ourselves to others. We were not born to live their life. There is no sense wasting our life (or energy) being jealous of theirs. Instead, let’s start living our lives. Let’s determine today to be good at it. After all, we only get one shot.
#Be_Yourself !!!
You are born an "ORIGINAL". Don't die a "COPY".
No offence to your post...
ReplyDeleteBut still I want to tell this in another way.
The girl who scores 67% might have not work hard than required. By seeing that her friend has achieved 87%, she might feel a little upset. But the thing is if we do not compare ourselves with others, then there might be no progress in our work. Suppose, the other friend had scored 65% instead of 67%, then both the girls feel happy and they will not try to improve.
Or may be this might have happened. Both the girl must had some kind of fever before the exams. But the girl who scored 87% have studied everything. And the other girl did not. She could have compared herself in a positive manner that she will also try to become like her. An inspiration. Not a Comparison.
Or due to some financial or any other reason she could not achieve what we want. In India, for girls it is very difficult to balance everything.
You know the fact is this is an unimaginable world. It is huge. There are a lot of stories behind everyone.
And comparing is not a big crime. We should compare ourselves with other in a positive manner. Oh, He /She is doing that thing. Let me try it whether I can do it or not. Maybe his/her destiny is there only.
Also, in Physics, if we need to measure anything, we had a comparison system :P
Sorry for some grammatical mistake...
