Understanding Why Comparisons Can Signal Opportunities from the Universe
Written on
Chapter 1: The Nature of Comparison
Have you ever noticed someone possessing something you lack? Perhaps it's a larger home, a swifter vehicle, a more attractive partner, greater wealth, well-behaved children, or even stylish clothing—among countless other things.
Most individuals would concur that measuring ourselves against others is not a constructive activity and often exacerbates feelings of inadequacy. This tendency frequently stems from a significant degree of jealousy, which can be detrimental to our emotional well-being, similar to the effects of indulging in an unhealthy meal.
