It's easy to compare yourself to others and let those Gremlins in your head start beating yourself down. She’s more successful. She’s thinner. Her kids somehow behave. Next time you are doing this, though, ask yourself, “Would I trade my whole life for their whole life?” It’s not fair to yourself to compare your whole self to the cherry-picked highlights of others. Would you trade your strengths? Your past accomplishments? Your family? Your community? When I think that way, I start loving even all my blunders and muffin top. My flaws make me human and me. Today, choose. Thanks, @adeecazayoux for the reminder.
