#comparison kills

[scroofy-was-here]

to all the fanfic authors (and authors in general tbh) out there who have problems with comparing themselves to other fanfic authors and trying to tell if their fic is "good" or not:

I wanna tell you right now that readers do not meticulously compare your writing to someone else's work to see whose is better, they see two separate fanfics that are both amazing and enjoyable to read!! don't be so hard on yourself :D

comparison kills, keep up the good work!!! <33

One of the best things you can do for yourself (especially right now with so many of us being so isolated) that is super simple is to just go through and unfollow or cut off anybody on your social media who isn’t contributing to your growth, healing, confidence or recovery. You are not obligated to follow these stuck up influencers, people with evil ideals or people you can tell have evil ideals but are pretending not to, fake celebrities who are photoshopping their bodies, and these girls who you follow subconsciously to torture yourself because you do not feel adequate enough.

Do yourself this one big favor and just unfollow (and block if you need to) all of the people who make you upset, bring back bad memories, all of the people you find yourself negatively comparing yourself to (“she’s so pretty, I’ll never look like her.” “I wish I had that body. I need to keep following her for motivation to lose weight” “why can’t my face/ body look like that?”) and anybody who posts things that aren’t either inspiring you, making you happy, uplifting you or reminding you to continue healing and growing in the right direction. You get to choose who and what you interact with on social media, as well as who interacts with you. So choose to follow and interact with accounts and people who inspire you, who lift you up and bring you joy and peace, those who teach you how to healthily cope and help you follow your dreams and reach your goals.

It’s not only okay to get rid of toxic influences in your life, it is encouraged! If you need to cut someone off to keep growing, do it. Mental health should always come first but especially during this period of difficulties, your mental well-being comes before following some photoshopped or negative person on social media. Your mental well-being comes before almost everything. It is extremely valuable and you need to realize that and treat it accordingly.

Comparison Kills : Fight For Your Confidence & Self-Esteem - That Mood Swing

One of the biggest mistakes we make is to compare ourselves to others. How could we not? We live in an era where everybody takes heart in showing off their lifestyles through social media. It can be inspiring in a way as it can be a wake-up call that will motivate you to go pursue your dreams or change your ways to have a better life.  

However, it can also make you feel bad about yourself for not doing what others are doing. And here is the danger.

Comparison Kills

“For You formed my innermost parts; You knit me [together] in my mother’s womb.” PSALM 139:13 AMP

—————-

After reading a devotional entitled, “Girl, Wash your face” it made me wonder about this scripture more. Yes, He formed my physical form but I wonder if this scripture is talking about my innermost personality, likes, dislikes, and favourite too. Who I am was crafted by the creator of the universe and I pray I stop denying who I am. I was never meant to be like her or him, but me. Just me. Let’s stop comparing and beating ourselves up for “missing the mark”, we are who He has crafted and we know that His works are always good, including us.
