A quote by Bill Gates puts it simply: “Don’t compare yourself with anyone in this world… if you do so, you are insulting yourself.”

It’s a strong statement, but there’s truth in it. When we compare, we ignore our own journey - the effort, the setbacks, the growth that no one else sees. We reduce our story to a side-by-side snapshot that was never meant to be equal in the first place.

On Is It Just Me?, Lynlee Foo explores why we constantly compare ourselves to others, and why it can be so difficult to stop, with insights from Sharmishtha Gupta, Counsellor and Psychotherapist at A Space Between.
