Comparanoia is rampant and spreading. We suffer with it; feverishly comparing ourselves to others and the false images and illusions we are exposed to by the entertainment world and Social Media.
As women, we measure ourselves against the “standards” that outdated societies defined and said are the norm of how good we should feel about ourselves.
Each day, we average 60,000 - 80,000 thoughts. 90% are repetitive and a huge percentage of those are negative.
Assuming you get up at 6am, by 9am, you have probably thought or said a number of negative things about yourself
Here is how a typical day may go.
Get up, go into bathroom, step on scale. Curse because the number isn’t lower.
Squeeze some toothpaste on your brush and begin brushing your teeth while you critically examine your face in the mirror.
As the shower heats up, you strip and catch a glimpse of your body sideways in the mirror. Boy, what you wouldn’t give for a lift for some of those sagging parts.
Is that muffin top getting bigger?
A quick scroll through Social Media; Facebook or Instagram newsfeeds, confirms what we already believe -
Everyone else looks better; looks thinner; is having more fun; doing more; being more…
And, THIS creates “Comparanoia…”
What is wrong with ME? Why am I not -
Further along…Richer…Thinner…More accomplished…Blonde…..Blue eyed…Insert Your Favorite Here….
Why am I not enough?????
Did you see some of yourself in that little exercise? Did it resonate just a little?
ENOUGH! Let’s take back control and stop the madness of this! You are beautiful and brilliant just as you are.
