Measuring your beginning against someone else's middle guarantees misery. Social media highlights reels, not reality. Everyone fights battles you cannot see. Comparing your chapter three to someone else's chapter twenty is pointless and destructive. Focus on your own growth, progress, and journey. Celebrate others without diminishing yourself. The only competition that matters is with who you were yesterday. Are you healthier, wiser, kinder, or stronger than before? That is the measure. Run your own race at your own pace. Your path is unique, and that is your power. Comparison steals presence; gratitude restores it.
