Make Your Damn Bed

Day 381 || relative comparison baseline II


Listen Later

Success as a whole is relative - which means it’s kinda bullshit. 

They did a study on people wanting to own nice cars based on the proximity to lotto winners who won or immediately purchased nice cars and the chances of you investing in a new car multiplied by 50% ish if you were in the neighborhood and 80% if you were the next door neighbor. 

If your social media feed is filled with mean, fake bodied, rich influencers who manufacture every post to look casual - you will absolutely think that your real, genuine, authentic casual life is pale by comparison. But if you follow people who are being vulnerable and honest - posting photos without edits and makeup and posing and curating and filters and stylizing and whatever - you’re more likely to see that other people’s houses aren’t always tidy or they also have bags under their eyes or their hair also does that weird thing like yours - and you’re less likely to feel lack in your comparisons.
