“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.” ~ Jeremiah 17:7-8 When life seems like it's unraveling, trusting God changes everything. Sometimes life looks like a tangled knot—so twisted and confusing you can’t tell front from back. You’re walking through a season where everything feels upside down: plans fall apart, circumstances feel...

3742 When Love Makes You Feel Capable, Not Crazy
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Marriage is meant to be a sanctuary—a place where you feel seen, supported, and capable of facing anything life throws your way. But all too often, the daily grind, the chaos of schedules, and the relentless overwhelm shift your marriage from a source of strength to a pressure cooker of frustration. Instead of feeling like a teammate, you may start to feel misunderstood and undervalued. It doesn't have to be this way—when love makes you feel capable, not crazy. That's when the entire dynamic changes. You move from surviving the chaos to thriving together, building a solid foundation that...

No more boredom battles. But here’s the twist: many kids don’t truly know what boredom means these days.

3740 You are Worth the Fight!
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Do you want more or something different, but struggle to keep that fire flickering? Maybe it’s dim. Maybe it’s drowned out by doubt. But it’s there — that restless urge for something better, bigger, truer to who you really are. You are worth the fight! Here’s the raw truth — no one ever started a real change when everything was perfect. Life is messier than that. Focus feels impossible when the world is pulling you every which way.

3739 What Needs to be a BIG Deal?
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
When it comes to healthy living, it’s all too easy to get caught up in the endless list of “must-dos” and “should-haves.” Drink more water, eat kale, get 10,000 steps, meditate daily, sleep eight hours, cut out sugar, do strength training, track your macros, avoid screens before bed — the list feels relentless. And that’s exactly where many good intentions go to die: in the overwhelming noise of “all the things.” But what needs to be a BIG deal? Life isn’t about juggling everything perfectly all the time. It’s about identifying what truly needs to be a BIG...

3738 Don't You Dare Dim Your Light
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Life will try hard to drag you into the daily swirl of other people’s agendas, distractions, and endless to-do lists that don’t even belong to you. It’s easy — dangerously easy — to lose sight of your own purpose and settle for the scraps left over after you’ve tried to manage everyone else’s priorities. Don't you dare dim your light. Why?

3737 How to Quiet Your Mind
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
If your brain is a noisy, cluttered mess, you won’t get far. Confusion doesn’t just cloud thinking—it demolishes action.

3736 Faith Over Fear
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
“The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?” — Psalm 118:6 (KJV) At first glance, this verse is bold, even audacious. It’s a statement packed with strength: when God is by your side, fear of what others think, say, or do loses its grip. Faith over fear. But what does that truly mean outside of Sunday sermons or quiet moments of prayer? What does living with “faith over fear” actually look like day-to-day?

info_outlineLet’s be brutally real: these days, it’s next to impossible to not scroll through your feed and wish you were somewhere else, someone else, doing what they do. Comparison is a trap. It’s a dark quicksand that pulls you under—sapping your confidence, hijacking your joy, and holding you back from the healthy, fulfilled life you deserve. So here’s your wake-up call: stop comparing yourself.
News flash: You are made for more.

Not to undersell yourself or settle for what you “think” you should be worth. Life is precious—a limited resource that demands you show up fully, honor your own journey, and speak your own truth. The soil of your heart deserves nurturing, not weeds of envy and doubt.
But what happens when you live in the spirit of comparison?
For anyone plugged into social media—Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, Pinterest—this spirit doesn’t just knock, it moves in. Every scroll, every double-tap, every pause on someone’s highlight reel seeds a dangerous question: “Why am I not them?” These platforms are engineered to spotlight what you lack. It’s not a glitch; it’s their business model. When you feed on the curated perfection of others, the narrative rewires your brain to focus on your supposed shortcomings.
Think about the last time you opened social media with a purpose.Most times, we just scroll—mindlessly, endlessly—feeding the machine that fuels comparison. And suddenly, hope gets replaced by "not enough." Ambition transforms into paralysis. It’s a hard pill, but one you must swallow to move forward.
When it comes to healthy living, this poison is even more deadly.If your idea of wellness is modeled entirely on social media gurus, influencers, or viral “miracle” diets, you’re on shaky ground. That’s comparison, plain and simple — and it doesn’t serve your body or your mind. Your health isn’t a one-size-fits-all viral trend. It’s personal, sacred, and deserves your unique commitment.
So stop!
The K.I.S.S. ~ Stop comparing yourself!
Quit watering the weeds of what you don’t have, and start cultivating the garden of who you really are.
What you plant and fertilize will grow. Want something different? You have to do something different. That means changing the mental diet you consume every day. It means smashing the comparison cycle and planting seeds of self-trust, action, and authenticity.3 Actions to Extinguish the Spirit of Comparison and Tune Into Your Heart
1. Practice Social Media Discipline: Own your time, don’t let it own you.
Set strict boundaries for social scrolling. Use social platforms with intention—no aimless scrolling allowed. Try scheduling 10 minutes a day max or use apps that block distracting feeds. Remember: what you consume mentally shapes your reality.
2. Create a “Self-Respect Ritual” Daily:
This could be journaling three things you actually accomplished that day, affirming your unique strengths, or setting clear, personal goals that aren’t tied to anyone else’s timeline. Make it non-negotiable. This recharges your mindset and weeds out toxic comparison noise.
3. Celebrate Your Own Progress Relentlessly:
Comparison kills momentum. Instead, track your wins, no matter how small. Progress is success—even if it looks different from someone else’s. Own your pace. Own your path. Be your own fan, not your own judge.
Let me level with you:
Comparison isn’t just a habit. It’s a silent addiction to distraction and dissatisfaction. If you want a better life, you have to dig deeper, plant your roots firmly, and stop feeding that hungry, destructive spirit.
You’ve got this.
Now it’s time to stop comparing yourself, stop looking left and right. Look forward, look inside—and go create your now.
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
