163: Comparison of Where You Thought You’d Be vs. Where You Are

We've spoken about comparison before but this week we're chatting specifically about where we thought we would be vs. where we actually are. A lot of these personal beliefs and expectations are based on life markers of what society says we should be doing or deems "successful". But if you had a very specific idea of where you would be at this point in your life or what you would have achieved, it can be really challenging to reconcile where you actually are - regardless of all the other things you've done and achieved along the way. Just because you're not where you'd thought you would be, it doesn't mean you've failed or you're not thriving, sometimes the path you've taken instead is even better than what you'd expected, or you've maybe realised that what you thought you wanted is no longer right for you.
