Self-comparison | Ahmadxo’ja Abrorhajaev | TEDxTSUOS
"Self-Comparison: A Speech That Will Change How You See Yourself | Ahmadxo’ja AbrorhajaevIn this inspiring speech, 17-year-old Ahmadxo’ja Abrorhajaev dives deep into the topic of self-comparison—a struggle many of us silently face. Reflecting on young, successful figures like Gabriel Iglesias, Malala Yousafzai, and Aelita Andre, he questions his own progress and self-worth, just like many teens and adults do.
But instead of staying in self-doubt, he challenges the idea that we must measure our worth through others. With honesty, humor, and powerful reflections, Ahmadxo‘ja explores why self-comparison can be so harmful—and how we can rise above it by focusing on our own growth, struggles, and unique path.
A must-watch for anyone battling with self-doubt or feeling behind in life. Abrorhajaev Ahmadxo’ja is a passionate young speaker known for his thought-provoking reflections on self-worth and personal growth. At just 17, he inspires others by openly discussing challenges like self-comparison, pressure from society, and the journey to self-acceptance. He encourages others to focus on inner progress rather than outside expectations. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
