I was lying on my sofa, mindlessly scrolling (滚屏) through social media, obsessed (痴迷) with someone else's fancy life. Without even knowing it, I was comparing myself to others. In fact, I'm not alone! Comparing is something we struggle with every day. Studies show that anytime a thought comes to our minds, there's a 1-in-10 chance that we're comparing ourselves to others. Social comparison theory states that people would judge their own social and personal worth by comparing themselves to others around them. Comparison had been the thief of my joy for long until one day I realized its pointlessness (无意义) as we are comparing our weaknesses to someone's strengths. I still remember several moments when I thought the worst of myself because I thought the best of someone else. For example, every time I saw Kayla performing well at her schoolwork, the first thing that popped into my mind was a wish that I could be as smart as her. I kept asking myself, “Why couldn't I just be like her?” I practically praised Kayla while hating myself at the same time. I decided to change. I started to focus on improving myself instead of comparing with others. I took up reading one book every month. I started new hobbies. This helped me to discover a new self. I learned to appreciate (欣赏) what I had. Every day, I wrote down things I was happy about and chose to be around people who made me feel good. This made me value my life and see how special it is. And I changed how I used social media. Instead of aimlessly scrolling, I customized (定制) my social media feeds (信息流) to include more educational and inspirational information. I felt happier and was less likely to compare myself to others. In our lives, it's important to ask ourselves a key question: are we tending (照料) our own garden or are we only visitors, admiring the beautiful gardens of others while failing to care for our own? Try not to get lost in comparing yourself to others since everyone is special. ___84___ 79. Was the writer(she) obsessed with others' fancy life on social media? _____________________________________________________________________80. How do people judge their social and personal worth according to social comparison theory? _____________________________________________________________________81. Why does the writer think it is pointless to compare ourselves to others? _____________________________________________________________________82. How many changes has the writer made? _____________________________________________________________________83.
