Are You Walking In Your Own Lane or Not?

Do you struggle with walking in your own lane ,


Let me ask you in this way, do you struggle with comparison?


This is something that happens to the best of us and it's your biggest enemy when it comes to your own personal development and uplevel journey.


The reason we feel unworthy,the reason we feel inadequate and not enough, the number one enemy when it comes to personal development is comparison.



Comparing yourself with other people, comparing your journey with other people's journey could be the biggest enemy to your progress right now.


We always feel unworthy and inadequate when there is somebody else involved or when we are trying to impress or please someone else.


May be you have opened a new YouTube channel and you start comparing yourself with other YouTubers. May be that YouTuber you are comparing yourself with has million views. May be that business woman you are comparing yourself with has many stores or clears their stock in a week.


When you look at what they are doing, you start feeling you are not doing enough and you are not good enough.


You start thinking how you should be doing better than them but then your inner critic asks you why you don't!


This invokes in you unnecessary competitiveness that is baseless and not even in alignment with your own goals.


When you compare yourself with others you find that you lose focus. You want to do what they are doing because you think it's better and earns them more but you don't know their journey.


You don't understand the struggle they have been through, the level of experience and learning they have had to incorporate to get to where you see them now.


Jealousy is another emotion that comes with comparison but at the basis it's a normal feeling but what you do with it is what matters.



Your downfall will be loud if you compare yourself with others because first, you will lose focus and get off your own goals which means you are off your lane and no success can come out of that.


We are all unique and we have different capabilities.


Alot of people feel unworthy at some point in life, the difference is what you do with that feeling.



Your only competition is who you were yesterday. You want to be better every day.


You can't be the other person no matter how much you compare yourself with them.


Celebrate others and see yourself capable of the same success.


Don't abandon your goals and path to hop into the other person's path because you think it's the best.



What you can do is learn from them. Let other people's success inspire you instead of pull you down.


They should inspire you to be better. Focus and ask yourself questions that will help you. Focus on your path.


Instead of comparing yourself, do what you can to see how you can move from point A to B on your own path.


If they can do it, why not you? Ask yourself, what do I need to do to get to the level I admire in others?



Start making small steps in that direction.




PS: The fastest way to uplevel your life is to get support through the journey. If comparison has been a negative pattern in your life it's time to work on your own self esteem. Get more details by replying to this email.
