Social media makes comparison constant. Everyoneโ€™s highlights are visible while their struggles remain hidden. You compare your entire life to their curated moments. The comparison is not fair.

Comparison steals contentment. Something that made you happy becomes inadequate when you see someone with more. Progress that felt meaningful shrinks when you see someone further ahead. Joy drains through comparison.

Compare yourself to your past self instead. Are you better than you were? Are you growing? Are you moving in a direction you value? This comparison motivates rather than deflates.

What comparison is stealing your contentment today?
