Comparing Yourself

Do you find yourself comparing yourself to others?

Stop Comparing! Everyone tells us not to do it. “Don’t compare yourself to her.” And I think we all know they are right, yet we still continue to do it. Why? It’s easy to look at the top physiques on social media, on the magazine covers, or even at the best bodies in the gym and think, “why don’t I look like that? I wish I had what she has.” I’ve done this. We all have. But the bottom line is… comparing yourself to others is unhealthy and unproductive and is going to get us nowhere.

So you want to get somewhere? Stop comparing yourself to others!

The day I stopped comparing my fitness journey and my physique to others was the day I was set free. It was the day my journey became a lot more enjoyable and therefore sustainable.

Successful people focus on their own shit.

It is a waste of valuable time to watch someone else’s life wishing you had what they had when you could spend that time working on yourself and bettering yourself.

You will never be happy if you continue to compete and compare with anyone other than yourself. You will never win that battle.

But when we compete with ourselves. That is when we get better. That is a battle we could win.

Look in the mirror. That’s your competition. It’s you vs you. Always.

I’d love to hear from you! Let us know in the comments what you to when you find yourself comparing yourself to others.
