Comparing Yourself
How do you feel when your parents compare yourself from your cousin or anyone who has scored higher grade than you?
Surely you won't feel better because your parents are comparing you with him. There are chances that yours and his situation is totally different when preparing for the exams.
He might have took tuitions or went to better coaching centers. You might haven't went there or if yes there might be other reasons. So this can't be the fair way of being compared.
The same case happens when you compare yourself from someone on social media. Whether he might be more good looking than you or he might have more number of followers than you. He might have more friends or have an impression on everyone.
This way you would compare yourself from him and feel underconfident. But see the real case is what you see on social media is not actually it is.
You are shown that luxury and successful life regardless the reality of it. It might be just shown you this way just for show off.
If it actually is real, then the person might have done a lot of hard work behind it to get to that level.
In this case rather than comparing, you should feel motivated to do hard work life him and life the same life he/she is living.
Advantages:
(i).Makes you confident on your own personality.
(ii). Encourages and motivates you to live the same way of life or even better.
(iii). You always feels positive and productive.
(iv). It gives you a moral value that everyone is good at some particular thing. This way you'll be motivated to find yours.
