How I stopped comparing myself to others.

It's simple.

Look. Telling yourself to stop comparing to others is not gonna stop you comparing yourself to others. Thats not how our brain works. For example, if I tell you "Close your eyes and don't think of a pink elephant". What do you do? You think of pink elephant! Our thought does not follow our mind. Coming to realization that comparing yourself to others is futile isn't gonna cut it either. Our brain actually has a part, I believe it was thalamus? ( I could be wrong) that constantly tracks our social dominance hierarchy, which is done thru comparing ourselves to others. What I suggest is to try your best to voluntarily stay away from comparing yourself others like using SNS and stuff. And when you do compare still, you can remind yourself that it's natural to compare yourself to others because that's how our brain is wired.

I agree. Like almost all things, comparison is a double-edged sword. A knife can cut a fruit or a person. And as the comment above said, avoiding comparison is totally impossible. I'm not saying people should do this but what works for me is being proactive. I compare myself with intention, with objectivity, and with purpose. I gain something from comparison. It's like a feedback. Why are they happier, more successful, or more powerful than me? What do they have or do that I don't? Comparison is a powerful tool, as well as other things. Using it correctly and moderately is always the key. At least, for me.
