I Don’t Think Comparison Is Bad

Summary

  • Comparing myself to others is neither good nor bad; it's just a tool to measure where I stand.
  • It's useful to see what others do that I don't so I can learn and improve.
  • I shouldn't judge myself as better or worse based on comparisons.
  • If someone is ahead, I want to learn from what they do.
  • If someone is behind, comparison isn't as useful unless they excel in a specific area where I can also improve.

Implementation Strategies for Personal Growth and Business Improvement

Compare Yourself Constructively

I would suggest seeing comparison as just a tool. Use it to measure where you stand, rather than as a way to judge yourself. This keeps your mindset positive and focused on growth.

Learn from Those Ahead

Look at people or businesses that are ahead of you. What do they do differently? Identify one or two things they do well that you can also try. For example, if they get more engagement on social media, study their posts to see what you can change in your own approach.

Don't Focus on Judging

Avoid saying "I'm worse" or "I'm better" based on comparisons. Instead, focus on the specific actions you can take to improve. Write down what you learn from others and make a plan to implement these strategies one by one.

Ignore Unhelpful Comparisons

Don't waste time comparing yourself to those who are behind you unless they excel in something specific. If someone is great at customer service and you aren't, see what you can learn from them without comparing your overall success.

Actionable Steps

  1. Daily Reflection: Spend 5-10 minutes each day reflecting on what others do better and how you can apply that.
  2. Set Improvement Goals: Write down at least one new thing to try each week based on your comparisons.
  3. Evaluate Progress: Once a month, review what you've tried and note any positive changes or areas still needing improvement.

Using these strategies can help you grow personally and professionally without any significant cost.

I don't know about the inner workings of anyone myself included but I don't think comparison is good or bad I think it's just a measurement tool they are here I am here when they post they get more views when they run things they get more than I do or they get less than I do and the part that gets people in trouble is the second part where they say and therefore I am bad or therefore I am good and so I think comparison is a very useful tool to figure out where you stand and where you can improve and I think that's all it is I always want to compare myself I want to look at other people who are ahead of me and see what they're doing that I'm not doing so I can learn and if someone's behind me I don't really compare much at all cuz like why bother or if they are behind me but they're better at me at something then I want to figure out why they're better than me at that thing that is the chief use of comparison everything else I don't see the benefit
