The Joy Thief

Spending your time and energy on comparing yourself to others is a way of robbing yourself of a joyful life.

*

Who have you compared yourself to in the last 24 hours, the last week or month?

Did this comparison make you feel more insecure or more motivated to improve and grow?

 

Comparison is the thief of joy.

-Theodore Roosevelt
