Why you SHOULD compare yourself to others (and how to do it effectively)

About this episode

Forget every cliche you've heard. In this episode of the Self-Led Leader, I challenge the common belief that social comparison is detrimental. Instead, I'm going to show you how intentional comparison can be a powerful tool for self-leadership. By understanding the psychology behind social comparisons, I'll help you understand the distinction between the different types of comparisons you're already making and how each can impact your self-perception, confidence, and motivation. I'll also dive into three common mistakes people make while comparing themselves to others, and I'll give you three powerful questions to ask yourself when you feel the self-doubt creeping in, so you can strategically turn into into a moment for growth. We all compare ourselves to others, so you may as well learn to do it well!
