When we compare ourselves to others, we are setting strict guidelines as to how our personal goals should be met. When we don’t conform to those expectations, we begin to judge ourselves harshly, begin to feel inadequate, or like a failure. This is far from the truth, but is often the reality.
There will always be people who are on a similar path as you, but they will never be the same as yours. Your journey is YOUR journey.
The guy you work with who is taking the same medication and losing way faster than you while eating complete garbage….Yes, he’s on a similar path, but it doesn’t matter if his success is faster or easier than yours. It is not YOUR journey.
The girl with the same medical diagnosis causing her infertility who only had to have one procedure before getting pregnant….Yes, she’s on a similar path, but it doesn’t matter if his success is faster or easier than yours. It is not YOUR journey.
The man who recommended TRT because it gave him back his vitality, increased muscle mass, and improved his sexual performance within 1 month…..Yes, he’s on a similar path, but it doesn’t matter if his success is faster or easier than yours. It is not YOUR journey.
The sibling who has the same parents that you have but doesn’t need medication, supplements, special diets, or routine physical activity to stay thin…..Yes, they’re on a similar path, but it doesn’t matter if their success is faster or easier than yours. It is not YOUR journey.
Stop comparing yourself to others! Instead, allow their journey to inspire us to continue towards our goals. The only person that matters in any of these scenarios is you. The person you were, the person you are, and the person you will become.
