[Video] Should you stop comparing yourself to other French learners?

should you stop comparing yourself to other French learners?

When we move towards a specific goal it is quite natural to compare ourselves to the people around us.

 

👉What kind of emotions are you feeling when you compare yourself to other expats who speak French?
👉Do you feel more of a positive or a negative feeling?

 

Comparison can bring up negative feelings:

😒 – Dissatisfaction
😒 – Jealousy
😒 – Low self-esteem

 

Should you stop comparing yourself to other French learners?

I don’t think it’s interesting to try to stop comparing yourself to other French learners because it’s a natural thing to do.

On the other hand, I think it is interesting to analyze these negative emotions to take stock of your current needs and start implement a good action plan.

And just like French learners, we have sometimes compared ourselves. So our personal experiences inspired this conversation, recorded for Cathy’s podcast “My Polyglot Life”.
