Test The Danger of Comparing Ourselves to Others
Agenda
QUESTION 1: Why is social comparison an "unwinnable game" according to the text?
There will always be someone who seems to have more success, money or a more exciting life
Because it helps us determine our status and survival
Because it makes us feel immensely lucky
Because it's a carefully edited version of reality
2nd QUESTION: What is the main problem of social comparison?
It helps us appreciate what we have
It shifts our focus from abundance to lack
It is a deep-seated human instinct
It helps us generate pride and achievement
3rd QUESTION: What specific pitfall do social networks like Instagram mention?
They foster gratitude for our own life
They help us compare ourselves to our past self
We compare our "real inside" with the edited "perfect outside" of others
They expose us to the full reality of others' lives
4th QUESTION: What is the only comparison that the text considers "truly useful and constructive"?
Compare ourselves to people who have less than we do
Compare ourselves to the man who has the twenty million dollar house
Comparing ourselves to the "best moments" of others on social media
Comparing ourselves to our past self
5th QUESTION: What feelings does comparison with others generate, according to the text?
Envy, inadequacy and frustration
Pride, achievement and motivation
Joy and gratitude for our own life
Anxiety and low self-esteem only
QUESTION 6: What is the first and most important antidote to the poison of social comparison?
Stop using social media altogether
Cultivate gratitude and focus on our own world
Trying to win the comparison game
Evaluating our position for survival
7TH QUESTION: What does the example of the man with the five million pound house demonstrate?
That social networks are the only source of comparison
That happiness depends on objective circumstances
That happiness does not depend so much on objective circumstances as on the standard by which we measure them
That we should always look upwards, towards what we don't have
8th QUESTION: Why has social comparison gotten worse with social networking?
Because we are presented with a realistic version of life
Because we compare ourselves with our "real inner self"
Because they help us cultivate gratitude
Because they expose us to an endless stream of edited and seemingly perfect lives
