When we compare ourselves to others, it’s easy to get caught up in their successes, good fortune, and happiness. But when we focus on how much happier they are than us, how much more successful they are, and how much more money they have than us, it can make us feel worse about ourselves and our lives.
Moreover, this can lead to jealousy, bitterness, and resentment. It can also lead us to make bad decisions that could ultimately hurt us financially, physically, and mentally.
But how do we stop ourselves from feeling bad about our own lives? How do we stop comparing ourselves to others and falling short?
In this episode of The His and Her Money Show, we are joined by Nona Jones, an internationally renowned speaker, business executive, media personality, and ministry leader who overcame the trauma of childhood sexual abuse to achieve immense career success.
