It’s easy to feel like you’re behind in life and that everyone else has it all figured out. You look on social media and see posts of people showing off the things that you want to achieve in your life but are nowhere close to getting.

It can make you feel like a failure or that you’re not good enough. But the truth is, no one has it all figured out. Everyone is just trying the best they can with what they have. Therefore, you need to stop comparing yourself and your life to other people’s.

Stop believing everything you see on social media, people only post their highlights and you don’t know what goes on behind closed doors. Remember, that you are not behind in life, you are exactly where you need to be right now. You need to go through life’s lessons and challenges to be ready to receive what you truly want.

Moreover, if everyone had everything figured out all the time, then life would be very boring and unfulfilling. Going through struggles and uncertainty will make it all the more worthwhile and satisfying when you do figure it all out and get what you want.

Stop Comparing Your Life to Other People’s

You need to stop comparing yourself and your life to others. Just because someone has something figured out that you want, doesn’t mean that they have all areas of their life sorted. They might not even like what they have and feel unsatisfied with the thing that you feel makes them better than you.

Just because other people have something you want, doesn’t mean that they are happy. They could be praying for something else that you have in your life. No one has it all figured out and we always want what we don’t have.

You don’t have to have all the answers in life and everything figured out all the time. Therefore, you need to stop overthinking, stressing, and obsessing over everything. Learn to go with the flow and let things happen naturally.

You will end up where you’re meant to be in the end and you have to learn to embrace and enjoy the journey and live in the present moment. Be grateful and happy with what you have now, whilst working towards your future one step at a time.

You don’t have to be perfect or know all the answers to every aspect of your life. Just keep moving forward and try to be better than you were yesterday. Stop stressing about having it all figured out and knowing the outcome of everything. Remember, all we can do is the best with what we currently have. Therefore, if you keep doing that then you will end up where you’re meant to be in time.

Summary

No one has it all figured out no matter how perfect their life might seem on the surface. Everyone has struggles, worries, and uncertainty in their lives.

It’s time to stop stressing and taking life so seriously, we don’t know how much time we have. Therefore, you shouldn’t waste it obsessing and stressing over things that will all work out in the end anyway.

Ultimately, there is excitement in the unknown. If you knew everything that was going to happen to you in your life and if everything always went your way, you’d have a pretty boring life.

We don’t need to know all the answers and things can go wrong and not to plan. However, we are always being led to where we’re supposed to be. The path isn’t always straight forward but that’s what makes us human and life worth living.

Stop comparing yourself and your life to others and just let everything flow in your life, you don’t need to be perfect or have all the answers. Learn to be happy and grateful in your present reality and you will feel so much more fulfilled and content with your life.
