Great article. I noticed I was comparing myself to a co-worker (again), and that I was coming up on the short end of the stick. On top of that I was really letting myself have it. I know I need to stop, but stopping by saying “don’t compare yourself to others” is a lot like saying “don’t think about a pink elephant”. This is a nice alternative and is really the only way to go. No one else has experienced all that I have, and there are certainly qualities I have that my co-worker does not although I don’t see them or choose to overlook them as the case may be.

facebook at times triggers me to compare myself to others..so in order to control myself.. I stop off browsing their status and photos so I would not know anything that would press me to start comparing. I am not sure if it will be helpful but I am beginning to do it and it is actually my new years resolution. But do you think I am doing the right thing? I hope so.
