The Comparison Trap That's Destroying Your Confidence | Tony Robbins Interventions

The gist

1. Comparing yourself to others is always distorted because the mind deletes and skews details, so compare only to your past self.
2. You can weaken painful memories by replaying them with humor, silly voices, or altered imagery to break their emotional hold.
3. When people act angry they are often just uncertain and afraid, and responding with calm ease works better than matching their tension.
4. Movement like dancing or singing interrupts the comparison loop by pulling the nervous system out of analytical overthinking.
