Comparison

You see someone else's life and something in your chest tightens. Not jealousy exactly. Just a quiet question about whether you're behind.

That feeling isn't information. It's noise, and most people have never learned to tell the difference. Comparison walks through where that noise actually comes from, why certain triggers hit harder than others, the mismatch between your full reality and someone else's highlight reel, and a real-time filter for catching the spiral before it takes hold. By the end, you'll have a personal definition of enough that isn't borrowed from anyone else.

This won't make the feeling disappear completely. It will change what you do the moment it shows up.
