You are only one

“Spending too much time focused on others' strengths leaves us feeling weak. Focusing on our own strengths is what, in fact, makes us strong.”--Simon Sinek


       One of the habits that most of us have is to compare ourselves with others. Initially it starts with, for inspiration or general reference, eventually it becomes envy and self-pity. Funny of this habit is we used to compare  with  similar level  people only  like friends, colleagues or neighbors.Poor compares only against  his poor friend, not against  the richest person whom he knows.!!
  
      The process of comparison goes like this. We start comparing with others on skill sets, competency, possession etc, start  amazing and then eventually  looking at self, finding the gap, start  feeling as  inferior, becoming self pity  and weak.When we multiply this comparison habit with so many people, eventually we will become conclude that “ I  do not have any positive qualities or skill set or competency and  I am not deserving of greatness”.

       In this process, we almost forget to look within ourselves and identify our uniqueness. When we look into the design of our creation, it reveals that you are unique in the entire creatures, no one lived like you earlier, and no one will come like you in the future. It is a fact that the thumb impression is unique for each person. If we understand this truth from nature, no point in comparing ourselves with others and forgetting our uniqueness.


      Bringing this awareness into our thought process is difficult since we are brought up amidst negativity, but again it is our choice to become strong! Hence, Start looks within you, identify your strength, good qualities, leverage for your growth and You attract good things in life!
