The response to Elon obviously speaks for itself, but @DaveChappelle just outright ripping on ‘the poors” in the upper level that literally paid money to come see him perform may be the most disturbing part of this. Pretty gross.
I truly dislike the notion that “most of the wins you see posted online are fake so you should be happy with your life”. That’s coddling insecurity instead of addressing it. The truth is, some ppl really are winning and you need to learn to be happy with your life regardless.
Not every entrepreneur you see posting their financial success stories is a scammer or somebody that had start up money. Some of them really got it out the mud and run exceptional companies.
Ever fit girl you see online isn’t surgically enhanced. Some of them when to the gym and worked really really hard for that body. Instead of talking down on her you can use it as motivation to work on yours too.
Every happy couple you see on your timeline is not miserable behind closed doors. If you have to tell yourself that in order to not feel jealous then you have internal issues that need to be healed. A lot of those couple are truly happy and that’s ok.
Don’t let social media turn you into the type of person they projects unhappiness on other peoples happy endings. Yours will come! Be happy for everyone else in the meantime
People do not need to post their relationship problems so you feel better about not being in one. People do not need to post their financial struggle seasons so you don’t feel bad when they have money. You shouldn’t HAVE to witness someone’s losses to cheer for their win!
True happiness is seeing someone do great and being happy for them without comparing their life to yours! Comparison was, is, and will always be the their of joy!
Other people are in happy relationships. Other people have amazing bodies. Other people have a lot of money. That’s good for them and takes nothing from you.
If you have to tell yourself that “all that glitters ain’t gold” whenever you see someone shining to cope, you’re just soothing your own insecurities. You need to learn how to be ok with knowing that sometimes, it really is gold! And that takes nothing away from your shine!
