Comparison Is Like A Devastating Plague
Never chase the validation of others. You do not need to prove and compare yourself to anyone for it only results to nothing. Do not dare to embrace destruction. Comparison is like a devastating plague.
Life itself is a plague of struggles and sufferings. Sometimes, it is a plague that hinders you to achieve the desires of your heart. Perhaps comparison is as good as a plague that has the ability to embrace destruction against inner peace, dreams, and happiness.
When you compare yourself to others, it is like embracing destruction in your very own life. Why compare when you can stand out? You are not required to chase the validation of others. You do not need to prove yourself to anyone for it only results to nothing.
You do not need to compare yourself to others for you are incomparable. Bear in mind that each soul is unique and special and nothing could ever change it. Do not dare to embrace destruction. Comparison is like a devastating plague. It ruins all your dreams and it does not allow you to find real happiness all through out your existence.
How often do you compare yourself to others?
Admit it that comparing yourself to others is inevitable in life. When our eyes often see a glimpse of something attractive not present in us or something better than what is existing in our lives, we tend to compare and contrast.
There is nothing wrong about it when your intention is only good like when you use comparison as a source of inspiration and motivation to achieve for an endeavor.
But, when we use comparison for evil or to feel inferior about yourself, it is another story of struggle and suffering. Comparison is like a devastating plague that ruins your inner peace, dreams, and happiness.
When you spend more time comparing yourself to others and looking for validation from other people, you would always end up regretting for you would truly feel a great fear of being judged by anyone and would only end up struggling in life, making yourself a failure.
Whether you like it or not, you are just making a huge effort for yourself to suffer and struggle from extreme feelings of resentment, envy, jealousy, dissatisfaction, and hopelessness.
Little by little, it destroys your inner peace, dreams and happiness just like a plague, draining and frustrating you into someone you do not want to become, most especially when you would realize one day that you could not compete and you could not dwell to another person's standards and quality of living.
Personally, I always remind myself that I do not need to prove my worth to anyone as I always feel better about myself. I do not need to chase the validation and approval of others, and this is the biggest challenge I am facing in life. I may have the habit of comparing myself to anyone but this comparison is a fruit of inspiration and motivation to move forward for success.
I keep on reminding myself that just like others, I too, have my own life to manage, instead of minding other people's life. And that I could always create a life that I would always want to become as I continually adjust my direction to wherever the wind may blow me, so I would have a chance of becoming a better person than I was yesterday.
If there is somebody that I need to prove and impress, that person should only be me, myself, and I. No one else, other than my very own self. But then, for every good thing I do in life, that is to glorify my God.
Moreover, there would always be people who are better than us. Regardless of the truth, anyone must not measure up using comparison just to seek a validation for self-worth and self-acceptance.
We only go around once, so let us not waste our time chasing for negativity. Instead, we shall use our time preciously to do worthy matters before we run out of time as we attract more positivity in life.
The best thing to do is be committed to yourself by staying true to the good values that you possess, and never to worry about the false opinions of others.
Remember that, you do not need to prove yourself to anyone but you can always prove yourself right against all doubts and criticisms from others.
Perhaps it is a matter of focusing for personal growth and development without comparison and chasing the validation of others. There is nothing to prove in life, not even someone's worth.
Most importantly, only you have the greatest power to see your worth. Thus, never ever allow anyone to dominate for your life. They do not have the power for your dreams, happiness, and inner peace, but it is only through a person as best as you.
In conclusion, comparison is like a devastating plague for it ruins your inner peace, dreams, and happiness in life as you drown yourself to a plague of struggles and sufferings through extreme feelings of resentment, envy, jealousy, dissatisfaction, and hopelessness. Never ever chase the validation of others, yet just dare to chase yourself. You are unique, special, and incomparable, remember that.

One phrase had popped up a while back and become popular, and that is : be yourself because everyone else is already taken @Talecharm! I find that as I get older, that lessens and lessens. You get to a point that it actually hits home, don't need anyone's validation! Very encouraging and uplifting post. Post obtained through Dreemport: https://staging.dreemport.com.
