Make things better by making better things.
In a world of tracking and measuring it’s easy to fall into the trap of comparison.
I must be doing something wrong because…
Everyone’s life on Facebook looks better than mine.
You have a million Twitter followers. I only have a hundred.
Someone gave me a 1 star review on Amazon.
I spent all day writing this post and no one read it.
The picture I shared has no likes or comments.
The Jones’s bought another new car.
Your co-worker who constantly slacks off made partner.
That lousy professor you had made tenure.
Our stocks are going down and the competitions is going up.
I’m in the middle of the Dip.
It’s easy to get down on yourself when you’re choosing to seek discouragement.
No author ever got better reading all of her 1 star reviews. Life on Facebook always looks more polished than what is actually being published. And the Jones’s? Well, they’re broke.
Keep things in perspective. The universe is a big place. Earth is just a drop in the bucket.
