Why to compare yourself

Friday, 16 September 2011


If you took the strengths of others, and compared them to your weaknesses, how do you think you’d size up? And do you think this would make you feel good?


The funny thing is, this is what most of us do at one time or another — and some of us do pretty often.


It’s a sure-fire recipe for a drop in self-confidence and for unhappiness. It’s also not that useful.

Most of the comparison is done by our parents.when we got marks in our studies good or bad that's don't matter they just want to compare to others.

We compare our self in daily life with one another without thinking good or bad,right or wrong.We should be best that we can be comparing our present with our outermost potentials which helps us to become a better person each new day.

Let’s say I take a look at someone who creates amazing artwork and really top-notch podcast on their website … and I look at my art and video skills, and realize that I don’t come close to measuring up. In fact, I look pretty pitiful (I’m a lousy drawer and don’t know anything about video).


But wait a minute: it’s not a fair comparison. Just because I don’t measure up doesn’t mean I should get out of the blogging business, or that I should get depressed or jealous or resentful. Instead, if I looked at my strengths — writing useful and honest posts — I can see that I have a lot to offer, a lot to be happy about.


And that’s so important — being able to look at your own strengths, and see your true value. It’s actually one of the keys to success, because without this ability, you will be unmotivated, and won’t believe in yourself. 

comparing with others make u lose your self confidence which mean when comparing to one who is great than you first be what you are. Compare yourself to few people, that you admire. Not physically but their with their bright personalities.

I never, ever compare myself to anyone. 
And if there's one thing guaranteed to irk me, it's when someone attempts to make comparisons about me, regardless of whether they're favourable comparisons or not. 
I am only myself, and I can only be me, and I like to be accepted for myself and not compared to another. I neither do compare nor prefer some one refer comparison.
It is never ending story and no one is satisfied at any stage.
So just be cool and enjoy.
 Don't compare yourself ,If you do you are insulting yourself .
