Awareness.
Most often we do these social comparisons without realizing we're doing it.It's a natural act,I suppose.So the solution is to become aware.If you focus on these thoughts for a few days,it will become much easier with practice,and soon it'll be hard not to notice.
Stop yourself.
Once you realize you're making these comparisons,stop yourself.Don't feel bad-just admit the thought,and gently change the focus.
Count your blessings.
Focus on what you do have,and on what you are already blessed with.Count what you have,not what you don't have.Think about how lucky you are to have what you have,to have the people in your life who care about you.If you always want what others have,you will never have enough.You will always want more.That's an endless cycle,and it will never lead to happiness.Instead,learn to realize that what you have is already enough.
Focus on your strengths.
Instead of looking at your weaknesses,ask yourself what your strengths are.Be proud of them.Work on using them to your best advantage.
No one is perfect-we all know that.But we seem to feel bad when we don't reach perfection.You aren't perfect and you never will be.Keep trying to improve,but don't think you'll ever be the"perfect person".If you realize that imperfection is what makes you who you are,you are already perfect.
