SHOW NOTES – Episode 1, Season 1 – Beware, Don’t Compare!
How is looking at what others do/have holding you back?
Carolyn says:
- Perception is reality – stick with how you felt when you put on your big, poofy dress before you went to the 1800’s club – don’t let the way others look take away from your initial feelings.
- If you let others make you feel bad, you won’t feel good enough to take action in your own life.
- Focus on what’s important to you. Do you even want what someone else has?
- Compare your current self to your old self as a way to show progress.
Becca says:
- Focus on what’s great about you. You have wonderful qualities that belong to just you- what are those? Can you be proud of what YOU have to offer?
- Stay away from social media when you’re feeling down. Don’t put a stick in your hands with which to hit yourself!
- Hang out with people who are a couple steps ahead of you.
- Use jealousy as a metal detector to find out what you really wish you were doing.
Book Mention!!: Jen Sincero “You Are A Badass”
Homework: Think of someone you compare yourself too and do a deep dive into what their life is ACTUALLY like: Now, When they started, AND Along the way! Remember, that you may be on the first page of a novel that someone else may have already finished. Don’t get discouraged, we all can finish in the end, in our own way.
BREAKING NEWS: We’ve decided to go weekly (despite what we said).
