Many people spend their lives comparing themselves to others 📉. They look at others’ achievements, possessions, or even looks, and end up feeling behind. The problem? Constant comparison is a trap — it drains your energy and shifts your focus away from what you can achieve. For example, a young professional who spends hours checking LinkedIn updates to see colleagues’ promotions might lose motivation, while they could be learning a new skill to earn a bigger promotion themselves.
The key 🗝️ is not to try to be “better than John or Sarah,” but to build your own perfect target profile — imagine the strongest, most skilled, most accomplished version of yourself. This profile becomes your benchmark. If you want to be a great public speaker, don’t compare your talks to your colleague’s… instead, study world-class speakers, note their strengths, and develop your own unique style.
Then, set the bar higher than what currently exists 🧠. If the average in your field is to read 5 books a year, aim for 20. If most businesses send one newsletter a month, produce one every week with richer content. If the average athlete trains three days a week, aim for five — but structure it smartly to avoid burnout. Your goal isn’t to beat others… it’s to make their performance irrelevant.
With this mindset ⏳, you’ll one day realize you’ve surpassed everyone — not because you were watching them, but because you stayed focused on your own path. 🌟
Steps to apply this mindset:
🔍 Analyze your “ideal you” — Imagine in detail your skills, lifestyle, and dream results.
📚 Find inspiring models — Not to copy, but to extract the best elements.
📈 Set higher goals than what’s common around you.
🛠️ Act daily in alignment with that target profile.
🚫 Ignore direct competition — Your only rival is yesterday’s version of yourself.
