With whom are you competing?

Who are you really competing with in life?

The only person you should be competing with is the one you were yesterday!

The most common limiting belief that I encounter in others is the belief that they’re not as good as others.

The way I encounter this within myself is when I question whether I’m good enough to achieve something, or when I think I’m fooling myself into believing that I’m capable of influencing the change that I am passionate about seeing in this world.

If we stop and pay attention for a brief moment, we’ll realise that it’s not about better or worse, it’s about competing with what we believe to be true about ourselves.

The day I began trying to prove myself wrong about all the things that I thought were just dreams or whimsical wishes is the day that I broke away from the expectations of others.

Better or worse is only important if you’re competing to be just like everyone else.

If everyone else had things figured out, the world wouldn’t be in the state in which we find it.

We’re all struggling with our own demons on the inside, while presenting a confident and bold facade on the outside.

That’s not necessarily being fake.

Sometimes it’s just how we preserve our dignity.

The moment you believe the facade, you judge yourself against a standard that doesn’t exist.

The fact that you find reason to judge yourself at all is problematic.

Your only focus should be in determining if you’re moving closer to, or further away from, the goals that you set for yourself.

Remaining connected with purpose and conviction to those goals is the only challenge you have.

Be you. Life is so much more rewarding when you are, and love becomes that much more attainable.
