Day 25: The Fastest Way To Kill Something Special
Happy Tuesday, friend!
The fastest way to kill something special is to compare it to something else.
The reality is the odds of us being the best at the thing we do is incredibly rare. There is most likely always going to be someone better in some way. Because of this, we constantly compare ourselves to others and their path.
But if I've learned one thing from over 300 conversations with the best of the best, it's that they all got to where they're at through different paths.
There is no one path for you to be successful; there are thousands.
You could be absolutely crushing it in your endeavor, but have your progress impeded due to comparison. Resist the urge to do so. Comparsion ruins special things.
Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today.
Ad Astra Per Aspera,
Dom
