Do you agree? How does this tie into our Self Esteem Unit?
Family Management 9/10 
I do agree because the more you compare yourself to people the less you are thinking of who you want to be as an individual, its better to have self acceptance than to consume your thoughts with jealousy.
I agree with this, i think when you compare yourself to other people you feel like you are not good enough and you become jealous which brings you down. But by wanting to be something or someone else, is a waste of the beautiful person you are.
I agree with this. Because there will always be someone better. You can’t be them you are who you are and you shouldn’t want to be someone else. We are meant to be different. When you compare your self to others it makes you wonder “what am I doing wrong” but you aren’t doing anything wrong you are who you are.
I definitely agree with this quote in a way. I feel if everyone compares themselves to others they will never be good enough because they will judge themselves that much harder. BUT if you compare yourself to, well, yourself then you can say for instance, compare how much you have grown.
I agree with this. The more that you compare yourself to others the worse your self-esteem may get because you don’t feel as great as the other people and your comparing yourself to who they are and not who you are. You are who you are and should be able to like that and not have to compare yourself to others.
The more we compare ourselves the worse we feel about ourselves. We will always see someone better than us and that makes it worse. I guess if you just compare yourself with you then it’s not as bad. Still comparison takes away from the good things in life because we forget they are there.
I agree with this because the more you compare your self to others the less you are to really find out about the individual that you are. And you will probably never become that person because you think that there is always someone better then you.
i agree with with this quote because everybody is different and comparing yourself to anybody else is not good for your self esteem, people are good at different things and if you are comparing yourself to someone that is better at something else than you are than all your doing is putting yourself down. instead of comparing yourself to other people you should be focusing on the things that make you the individual that you are.
its true because when we compare ourselves to others we are not happy or joyful. it just makes everything worse and it steals our joy away.
There is always someone out there that is better than you at something; and always finding that person and comparing yourself to them will do nothing but tear down every ounce of self esteem you have. You should always remeber you are defined by more than one attribute, and not one person in the world is exactly the same…hold on to that and give yourself credit for the little things that make you who you are.
i deffinatly agree with this and everybody elses comments, when you compare your self to others you will always find your flaws stand out more when really your beautiful just the way you are. Every one is good at something and when you compare your sellf to a individual you look at the thing there best at and you put your self down and believe the worst of yourself.
I agree with this because I believe that the more you compare yourself to everybody else the less you are being yourself and having your own choices and styles and you’ll never be happy if you’re always comparing yourself to another person.
This is very true in my opinion. People… especially teenage girls, have millions of insecurities and that is because they compare themselves to others, and what guys think of other girls etc. Of coarse it brings them down, and makes them less comfortable in their own skin. A lot of girls struggle with comparing to “perfect” when they don’t realize it doesn’t exist.
