Very often people start comparing themselves to others. This happens in various places – from the gym to the university.

If you don’t get rid of this habit, then comparison can lead to the development of complexes.

Elena Gutyro, an expert on astrology, esotericism and psychology at the site "TUT NOVOSTI", will tell you what needs to be done to correct the situation.

Praise

Find your strengths and push your weaknesses into the background. Focus only on the good.

Start praising yourself for your achievements, for example, for getting a good job, for your inner qualities. Gradually, you will look at yourself from a different perspective.

Naturalness

When a person wears many masks, it is difficult for him to remain natural and happy.

Try to focus on yourself, your desires and stop copying someone else's life. Remember, you only have one life and you need to live it the way you want.

Fighting the feeling of envy

The feeling of envy can accompany a person for a long time. However, if you constantly suppress it and start to sincerely rejoice at the successes of others, then over time all the negativity inside will disappear.

It is also important to put yourself in the other person's shoes. Perhaps the person who achieved success did a lot to achieve it. He may have deprived himself of sleep or pleasure.

Think about whether you are ready to give up delicious food or entertainment to achieve your goal? If so, take an example from a successful person and there will be no time for envy.

By following these tips, you can stop comparing yourself to other people.
