Alll the time. :/ I think almost everyone does this, they just don't always say it.
So thanks for saying it, it comforting to know we are all in the same boat sometimes.
Even though I don't always believe it myself, we are all awesome/amazing in our own ways :)
I know that feeling. It's so easy to compare myself to others and want to look like them. BUT God created me to be me and not someone else.
You should check out the song "There Could Never Be A More Beautiful You" by Jonny Diaz. Love it!
I do that too.
Not so much about the pretty part because I can't change that ... I'm stuck with what I have. But things like "I am not skinny enough, or organized enough, or detailed enough, or funny enough, or fast enough ..."
And I consider myself to be quite comfortable in my own skin.
I feel much better that I'm not the only one who does that.
I feel ya! If that were my list, I would add good writer. I read other's blogs and am blown away by their writing skills. I just blab on... and on and on... lol
BUT!
You can't compare yourself to others ... easier said than done .. I know. But, it's not fair to yourself.
Keep your chin up!
I feel this way all the time. Mostly about the creativity and writing on my blog.
I feel this way all the time. But, I'm doing this for me so I TRY not to compare myself. It's hard sometimes but all I can do is try.
I do this on Facebook too...and in real life. I think everybody does, though that doesn't offer a ton of comfort when you are in the middle of it. <3
Of course there is one blog you can go to for a pickmeup always. YOU KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT.
don't we all! but you have to remember...you're not them. you are you. and something I'm good at forgetting if I've really only been running for a year and a half! Most of the other bloggers have been running for at least 3 years...its all about progress on your time!
All the time sister!!
Yes!! I feel this way a lot. I'm not a good writer or very creative. Sometimes I think about not having my blog anymore, but I enjoy having it. I know exactly how you feel.
Yes! Love the honesty!
Other people write how they write. I write how I write. I swear I have a multiple personality disorder because i write different ways. never the same. sarcastic, funny, dull, boring, serious, crazy. i have learned to just go with it.
As far as how other peeps looks. I agree that sometimes I feel more "fluffy" then in shape and icky then pretty. I do however feel my "just had a run and i am all sweaty and wearing a hat look" is way better then my "i just spent time on my hair and this is the best i got look".
thanks for saying the things we dont say.
