We are hard-wired we are to compare ourselves to others. We don't like to admit it, because we think judging others is "bad", and we know it doesn’t feel good when others are judging us. But the reality is that this activity of our brain is subconscious and automatic. In fact, like the other mindset traps I've been exploring in this series, the "comparison trap" is our brain's way of keeping us safe and comfortable. But if we allow our brain to fall into this trap without supervision, we can create resentment and frustration all in the name of avoiding rejection or the risk of disappointing others. Join me in this episode and others in this mindset trap series and I explore how to get out of these traps.
