I see it, and used to do it, all the time. It's not good for you and I'll give a little advice for why it's not good for your relationship.How to do it?...Hmm… stop doing it in your mind. Raise the status of yourself in your mind and in the real world so that you're on the same level as others.And how do you do that? Learn. Study. Grow. Exercise. Treat yourself better. Appreciate your gifts. Learn more about your personality type and what you can offer the world. Donate to charity. Write a book. Give yourself a high-five every day in the mirror. Chant mantras / affirmations. Study self-hypnosis. Build a house. Fix your posture. Watch less tv.Any of those seem like a good way to help you think more highly of yourself (and thus not below others).I hope it helps!****Connect and Support Geek Psychology #geekpsychology ****FREE 8 Hero Personality Assessment: https://geekpsychology.com/ Support the Show.
