In psychology, the human drive to compare ourselves to others is called “social comparison theory”.
What happens when you stop comparing yourself to others?
“If you're always looking at keeping up with other people or comparing yourself to other people, you're likely overlooking your own strengths and talents. You may even hide your talents and strengths,” she says. Once you stop comparing your life to others, self-esteem will increase.

3.Learn to compete with yourself instead of others.
4.Have boundaries around how much time you spend on social media.

Not only are we unhappy but the other people are as well. They are probably comparing themselves to you—maybe you're better at networking than they are and they're jealous. At worst, when we compare ourselves to others we end up focusing our energy on bringing them down instead of raising ourselves up.
