1
Are you constantly comparing yourself to other people and feeling miserable about it?
2
I think you are because you clicked on this video, but that's no problem because I am here to save you.
3
I am here to teach you how you can finally stop comparing yourself
4
because comparing yourself to other people constantly is literally one of the worst things you can do for yourself.
5
There's that quote that says comparison is the thief of joy
6
and it's so true
7
because no matter how good your life is how pretty you are how successful you are
8
if you constantly compare yourself to other people it will never feel enough
9
because there will always be someone trust me
10
there will always be someone who is better than you in
11
something who is prettier than you who is more successful than
12
you who has who has more privileges than you whatever
13
if you look for it you will find it
14
so by constantly comparing yourself you are literally making yourself feel miserable
15
because you will never never never never ever feel enough
16
if you always look at others why should you always look for everyone else
17
if you know
18
that this makes you feel miserable instead of just looking at yourself you should take your time
19
and you should take your energy and put it back into yourself okay
20
so the first thing i really need you to understand is
21
that someone else being good does not make you less you really need to understand it
22
because people who tend to compare themselves a lot they tend to feel bad
23
when someone else has something good when someone else is pretty they feel less
24
when someone else is successful they feel less and this is
25
so bad because as i said there will always be someone who is good at something
26
or better at something than you are and when other people's achievements
27
or when other people's privileges make you feel less this is this is not good okay this is
28
so bad for your confidence i once heard that quote
29
that says another person's beauty is not the absence of your own
30
and i love this quote because this is
31
so true other people's success other people's beauty other people's whatever does not have any impact on your life
32
you need to understand this just
33
because someone else is pretty it does not make you less pretty just
34
because someone else is successful it does not make you less successful
35
and when you really understand this point you will become
36
so much more confident because you finally stop feeling like everyone else is better than you.
37
And also beauty, let's take beauty in this example, beauty is always in the eye of the beholder.
38
Everyone else has a different definition of beauty or attractiveness or whatever.
39
You might look at someone and you wish you look like them
40
because you feel like they're the prettiest girl in the world.
41
But at the same time, someone else might look at you thinking the same thing about you,
42
even though you don't think this about yourself you really need to understand
43
that beauty is always in the eye of the beholder
44
and i once read a quote i know in this video this video is full of quotes
45
but i love them a quote that said flowers are pretty
46
but so are sunsets and they look nothing alike sunsets
47
and flowers do not have to compete with each other
48
because both are beautiful in their own way someone might think
49
that flowers are more beautiful someone might think that sunsets are more beautiful
50
but there is beauty in everything really in everything and just
51
because someone might like sunsets more than flowers it does not change
52
that both of them are beautiful even though not everyone thinks
53
that both of them are equally beautiful okay the next thing i want you to understand is
54
that you really need to remember
55
that you always just see a little part in someone else's story okay
56
you most of the time we don't see the whole story of someone else
57
we just see their lives we see that their lives look perfect we see
58
that they are successful they are beautiful whatever
59
and we are like oh my gosh i wish i was them
60
i wish i looked like them i wish i had their life they are
61
so lucky whatever but i don't think
62
that you really want to trade your life with someone else
63
because you never really know what someone else had to go through to get to where they are right
64
now i once saw a video where someone said imagine everyone
65
on this planet would put their problems in one pot including yourself of course
66
and without looking you would have to pick someone else's problem
67
and you would have to trade your problems with this person's problems would you take
68
that risk i don't think that you would i really thought about this
69
and i was like no
70
when i really imagine what kind of things happen on this planet i would not i have my problems
71
and i don't like my problems i need to say this
72
but i would not want to trade problems with anyone else really
73
because everyone everyone has their problems okay everyone has their difficulties in life
74
and even though it doesn't look like it trust me everyone has their struggles just look at me for example
75
i don't look like what i went through you just see how i look
76
you see what i'm doing you see that i make youtube videos
77
and you might think oh my god she's so lucky whatever
78
but you don't know what i went through
79
and you don't know what i had to do to get to this point in my life okay okay
80
i have to say you know
81
because I'm talking about my life on this channel more than I'm talking about it in my real life
82
because you are my little
83
youtube family but really the next time before you compare yourself to someone else remind yourself
84
that you don't see their full story
85
and even though they look like they're the luckiest person on this planet
86
you don't really know what goes on in their lives
87
and this is also unfair to you to just compare yourself to the good things you are seeing
88
but you are letting out all the bad things you're not seeing
89
and this is also the reason why you should only compare yourself to your past self
90
because as i said there will
91
if you look for it there will always be someone who
92
is better than you in something more successful more pretty blah blah blah i already said it
93
and you can't change anything about it you will feel so helpless
94
because just looking at other people will make you feel like you are the victim you're just sitting there
95
and feeling like everyone else is more privileged than you everyone else has a better life than you
96
and you will you will end up being a victim in your own story
97
but when you compare yourself to yourself only
98
and to your past self you can actually do something
99
when you didn't like
100
that you were lazy yesterday you actually have the power to change it today you can say i didn't like
101
that i didn't do anything productive yesterday today i'm going to have the most productive day ever
102
so your goal should not be to be better than everyone else
103
or to catch up with everyone else your goal should be to be better than the person
104
you were yesterday okay but what can be helpful
105
when you compare yourself to other people instead of envying them is to turn your comparison into inspiration
106
because most of the time
107
when people compare themselves to other people they kind of feel jealous
108
that this person has something that they would want to have too
109
but when you let yourself be jealous of other people you will become miserable
110
because jealousy is a disease jealousy is a disease the feeling is normal the feeling of jealousy is normal
111
but how we handle this feeling can really change the outcome you can sit there
112
and say they don't really deserve it they're too lucky they didn't have to work for it whatever
113
or you can ask yourself why do i feel jealous right now you really need to be conscious of yourself
114
and ask yourself why do i feel jealous right now do i want the same thing
115
that this person has and
116
if the answer is yes the answer can be yes then instead of just sitting there
117
and victimizing yourself ask yourself what can i do to achieve the same thing
118
this is also an opportunity to get your power back because
119
when you just sit there and feel jealous nothing will change
120
but when you ask yourself what can i do to achieve the same thing you take your power back
121
because at this point you can do something
122
you can act let's say the person
123
you're jealous of has a nice toned body whatever instead of just sitting there
124
and being jealous of her ask yourself do i want the
125
same thing do i also want a nice toned body and
126
if the answer is yes ask yourself what can i do to achieve
127
this goal do i need to watch what i'm eating do
128
i need to go to the gym more do i have
129
to increase my daily steps what do i have to do
130
and then you can work towards that goal it's really
131
so helpful for you when you can catch yourself
132
when you compare yourself and being honest to yourself that you
133
that you are feeling a little jealous right now
134
but then instead of victimizing yourself
135
and feeling bad about yourself turning this comparison into inspiration
136
and actually taking action in your own life this will really change everything it will change your life
137
because you are taking action and it will also change how you feel about yourself
138
and you will stop feeling so miserable just
139
because someone else has something nice
140
and the last thing i want to say in this video is
141
that you really need to focus on your own path okay i told you
142
that you can turn your comparison into inspiration yes
143
but the message of this video is
144
that you need to focus on yourself okay because
145
when you're constantly busy looking at everyone else
146
and comparing yourself to everyone else
147
there will be no time left to look at yourself
148
there will be no time left to look at your own path
149
and this is why i'm always saying it's
150
so important to limit your social media consumption
151
because the the biggest source of comparison
152
we have today is social media our brains are not made
153
to look at hundreds of different lives every single day but
154
when we spend hours
155
and hours on social media every single day we will end up comparing ourselves no matter how conscious we are
156
because it's too much it's too much for our brains
157
so please do yourself a favor and limit your social media consumption
158
because when you don't look at
159
so many people every single day you don't have to compare yourself to
160
so many people every single day
161
because you don't see them this is the first thing
162
and the second thing is
163
when you don't spend your whole day on social media you will actually have more time
164
and more energy to pour into yourself to pour into your own path to build your own life
165
i i think it's crazy how many people don't realize
166
that they are wasting their time watching other people's lives instead of building their own
167
so yeah guys that's it for today's video i really hope it was helpful
168
because comparison comparing yourself to other people it's it's all kind of automatic
169
but we can really change our behavior and our relationship towards comparison
170
so that we don't feel miserable and
171
that we actually do something in our lives to make yourselves happy anyway guys
172
i will say i'll see you in my next video

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
