Deleting Social Media was the best decision I have ever made! 🙏 Now I actually love what I create again without feeling the need to compare it to others.

My ex girlfriend ended up pushing me away because I was “too good for her”, cause I had my shit together and she didn’t. If you go on her social media, she’s always happy/her life is amazing. She’s a pretty girl and has thousands of followers but not a single one knows the behind the scenes. I love the girl but that alone showed me how fake social media is.

It takes too much energy, and generate too much fear to focus on what others have achieved.
If you're reading this comment, I hope you could believe in yourself and try to not to focus too much on your insecurities.

Top things that helped me with comparison are:
- Understanding that we all have such different lives and circumstances that comparison between you and another person can NEVER be a fair test.
- You never truly know someone, so it's impossible for you to actually compare yourself to them. You're comparing your entire self to your outside perception of them.
- Everyone's losing the comparison game. The people that make you feel like shit, have people that make them feel like shit. In that sense, we're all equals.
- Even if comparison was completely valid, it still doesn't help you in any way at all. So there's no reason to do it. You have full permission to let go of those thoughts for this reason.
- Comparison is a habitual way of thinking, and habits can be changed!

Staying at home in lockdown and constantly checking social media made me start to hate myself and my achievements. Hopefully i will get out of it.

I deleted social media (still on YouTube, obv) since August of last year. And I must say, I went from suicidal ideation with constant comparisons and negative thoughts to mental clarity and positivity. Watching videos like these and the like, has helped tremendously. Social media can be toxic for a vast majority, and if it’s got you down, just delete it and don’t look back. I’m so glad I did.

I find it sad that how our generation is suffering so much from mental problems including my self but I’m glad I found you’re channel

Recognizing your own self-worth exists outside of the opinions of others and striving only to compete with who you were yesterday, answering only to your own inner compass and looking at every imperfect venture as a 'process of elimination rather than a failure to acquire value

For the few people reading this, wishing peace and prosperity on you all 🥷🏾⛩

Have you ever wondered how back in the early 1900s on up until the late 1900s there were so many advances in science and technology, so many inventions. Perhaps men and women back then weren’t nearly as distracted by what their fellow man or woman was doing, but were zeroed in on the task at hand. It seems like the more we consume ourselves with comparison and what others are doing it only stalls us and further paralyzes us from achieving goals.

The best way to stop comparing yourself is to think of people who compare themselves to you and how social media is for clicks and clout a lot of people on instagram are not at all like how they present themselves
