{"quotes":[{"text":"When you begin to walk your own journey, to have your own unique conversation, you will naturally stop feeling envious of others. Not because you’ll realize your desires are different from theirs, but because they are so similar. You’ll discover the difference between doing well and pretending to do well, between being happy and pretending to be happy, between healthy relationships and staged ones. You’ll see just how many obstacles lie on any path. You’ll realize that it takes the same amount of effort to work on building up the quality of the conversations in your life as it does to broadcast to the public, constantly, that those conversations are already perfect. You can either build up the mask or build up the authentic self. And you, brave and beautiful you, will make the right choice eventually. Be it now or on your deathbed. We all realize soon enough.","author":"Vironika Tugaleva","tags":["authentic-self","authenticity","comparing","comparing-to-others","envy","jealousy","self-acceptance","self-love","self-respect","social-comparison"],"id":38795,"author_id":"Vironika+Tugaleva"},{"text":"Whatever your passion is, keep doing it. Don't waste time chasing after success or comparing yourself to others. Every flower blooms at a different pace. Excel at doing what your passion is and only focus on perfecting it. Eventually people will see what you are great at doing, and if you are truly great, success will come chasing after you.","author":"Suzy Kassem","tags":["achievement","ambition","attitude","blooms","chase","comparing-to-others","comparison","comparison-to-others","doubt","drive","excel","excellent","faith","fear","flower","focus","great","greatness","insecurity","life","motivation","passion","passionate","skill","success","successful","time","waste-time","willpower"],"id":167441,"author_id":"Suzy+Kassem"},{"text":"Stop comparing yourself to others and focus on your own improvement.","author":"Lolly Daskal","tags":["comparing-to-others","self-improvement"],"id":463531,"author_id":"Lolly+Daskal"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":3,"pages":1}}
