Chapter 1: Why We Compare Ourselves To Others

Humans have a natural tendency to compare themselves to others. We all do it and have done it since we were children. But the true issue is how such comparisons make you feel. Comparisons can be quite useful if they empower you and motivate you to achieve your goals.

However, if comparing yourself to others makes you feel unworthy and miserable, you need to adjust your approach. This book will teach you how to quit comparing yourself to others in order to avoid emotions of worthlessness, as well as how to benefit from comparison.

Once you've mastered how to use comparisons correctly, you'll notice that you can automatically dismiss any negative comparisons. It won't disturb you that someone else has what you don't. You will be intent on bettering yourself and your life.

The trick is to use these comparisons to your advantage. Most people have standards for their thoughts that do not originate within them, but are influenced by outside factors. Consider a girl who wants to shed a few pounds in order to look like the model on the cover of a magazine. Or the boy who goes to the gym to get those six-pack abs he sees in the movies.

The problem with these kinds of comparisons is that they do not originate within you. Instead of defining your own beauty standards, you have allowed the outside world to do so for you.

The Festinger Research

In the 1950s, Leon Festinger, a social psychologist, began to investigate why people compare themselves to others. He got to the conclusion after a lot of research and many studies that people compared themselves to others for two key
