Stop comparing myself to other people

I have to admit – I haven’t been very focused on this goal lately. In fact – I find myself slipping back into the habit of comparing – of doing the exact thing that I so want to stop doing.

I guess that I just have to be more mindful of this – instead of dwelling on a negative thought to stop myself before the thought goes too far…

I want to be at peace with myself. Completely. With my past, with my mistakes, with my looks, with my {single} status, with my shortcomings.

I think that this is an ongoing battle.

I wonder if there will ever be a point in my life when I can stop comparining myself to other people and just be content with who and where I am. I know that there will always be someone out there who is prettier, smarter, better, more. And I realize that making comparisons does nothing but make me feel bad about myself. It’s damaging.

I know that I have to stop it.

Hopefully, I can be more mindful of this horrible habit and stop the negative commentary that goes on in my head when it starts.

I want lasting confidence, instead of brief moments of it, that just come and go….
