Untethered with Jen Liss

Hey, unicorn. Stop comparing yourself to others!

What’s on your mind, unicorn? 🦄 Send me a text!

You may have heard the phrase, "comparison is the thief of joy." Well, it's also the thief of your unique, sparkly magic.

In Tuesday's episode with Suzanna Helia, she shared the importance of not comparing yourself to others – and ESPECIALLY those within your same category.

This is applicable whether you're a CEO of a business, an entrepreneur, small business owner, a mom, a corporate manager, or any other role you happen to be engaging in right now.

When you constantly compare yourself, you will  find yourself focusing on the things you feel like you lack rather than appreciating the gifts you already have inside of you, your achievements, and the positive aspects of your current situation. 

Comparison can lead to feelings of jealousy or envy, self-doubt, and a sense that you're not measuring up. This puts you straight into the snake pit, where you are poisoned by negativity and fear. In this place, you are robbed of your own joy and satisfaction that you could otherwise experience by embracing your own incredible unique gifts, talents, experiences, and essentially the magic of your own journey. You cannot access creativity here. It doesn't exist in the snake pit.

Joy is your strategy. When you find yourself in the comparison snake pit, turn back toward things that bring you fun and enthusiasm.
