Scrolling through others' highlight reels makes you feel behind. But that pressure isn't real. It's your ego comparing your actual life to someone else's curated moments, stripped of all the struggle and context that got them there.
Have you ever scrolled down someone else's success story or their vlog traveling the world, experiencing luxurious cuisine or whatever experience they were shooting on social media, and suddenly you felt as as if your whole life is behind. It's as if you are late to some invisible deadline. That pressure, that tension does not come from truth. It does not come from your authentic self. It comes from— From the ego. From misalignment, because you are comparing your location to their highlight, not even their life, not their process or journey or even the pain or the contest. [NOISE]
