To think that each of us can be perfect is a fantasy that will never happen, we all want to do things right and be satisfied with what we have achieved, but along the way we can get lost and have the idea of being superior to others. , and thus enter the spiral of resentment and jealousy?
There’s no point in comparing yourself to others. Each of us lives and experiences different situations, feelings and thoughts Is comparison unnecessary?
- How far could you go so you don’t feel inferior to others?How do you cope with changes in your life?Do you cultivate flexibility or stiffness dominate your days?.
When a change enters our life, whether professional, social or personal, we must be flexible to be able to adapt without forgetting ourselves, otherwise the consequences can be terrible, as is the case with the protagonist of our short film.
It may be that at certain times in our lives we felt inferior, compared to the people around us. Maybe because a hurricane of change has appeared, or simply because we realize that the other person has a great skill with certain skills, skills for which we thought we were “good. “
This is what happens to the little robot, the protagonist of our short film, who was used to his daily routine with which he felt comfortable and happy to fulfill his mission, however, suddenly becomes irrelevant with the appearance of a new couple with faster. The consequence of this is that our protagonist enters a spiral of jealousy and resentment?What about him?
“No one can make us feel inferior without our consent. ” – Eleanor Roosevelt-
When we compare ourselves to others and consider ourselves?Or worse? we begin to distrust our skills and abilities, generating total distrust in ourselves, thus affecting our level of self-esteem.
In the face of this situation, which we live in as a threat, can the consequences be multiple?We can achieve a state of inability to defend ourselves, in which we believe that we can do nothing, which leads to stillness and contempt for ourselves.
But we may also want to try to overcome ourselves and continue to evolve so as not to collapse The problem arises when we focus on the energy we must use to mobilize and make the most of ourselves by destroying what are the people around us. boycotting their jobs, attitudes or relationships.
Driven by envy, resentment, and jealousy, rather than looking for a way to overcome ourselves, we focus on finding a way to destroy what the other has or does, making us feel superior, that is, our attention is directed outward and not inward. .
Thus, we hold others responsible for our misfortune or our feeling of inferiority, when in reality it is a perception that we construct of ourselves, as happens to the little robot.
Trapped or not caught up in misfortune, adding resentment and jealousy, the only option left is to learn to be flexible to adapt. Accepting the new situation, or the fact that other people may have better skills than ours, is the beginning of change. .
The alternative is to hold the right person accountable for how they feel and to be aware that it is we who consider ourselves “inferior,” “better” or worse. We who create the filter, and it is on this basis that we act, thus affecting our level of self-esteem.
“If you decide to be flexible, you’ll gain enormous weight on your back when you see that nothing is foretermined and that you can be the only judge of your own behavior. -Walter laughs
Feeling jealous or resentful, thinking that we cannot overcome or overthrow, is nothing more than a creation of our insecurity, it is we who, on some occasions, have put others as enemies, thus initiating a struggle of suffering and unrest for wanting to replace. Them.
This is what happens to the little robot of our short film: Defeated by insecurity, transforms a situation of collaboration into competition, made of the rigidity of his resentment and jealousy, with the consequence of his own destruction?
Therefore, we must remember that we are inferior only if we give ourselves permission to do so, and that competing to destroy is not a good option for us to be happy; However, will it work together and be flexible to improve the most appropriate option to prevent us from stopping?
