The reason you feel behind in life is because you’re comparing yourself to others who seem to be ahead of you.
When you compare yourself to people who graduated, got jobs, got married, reproduced, bought cars and houses and vacations, not only are you doing a disservice to yourself, but you’re also contributing to the narrative that “success” is measured by external achievements rather than inner fulfillment.
Here’s how to stop comparing yourself to others and start accepting that you are exactly where you need to be.
Let this episode be a refreshing, encouraging reminder that feeling lost, directionless, or behind in life just means that you are taking the necessary time to pave your own way.
