Comparison to a certain extent makes things healthy. But when negative self-talk comes in, that’s where the problem is.
Instead of minding everything that others are doing, why not work at bettering yourself for the people you serve?
Things can never be perfect, everyday is a work in progress. For as long as you are doing your best for your people and you are helping them reach their goals, that is enough to be proud of.
Andrew Coates graduated from Memorial University of Newfoundland with a Bachelor of Commerce(Co-op) Honours. He grew up as a competitive cross-country skier, basketball player, and dabbled in many other sports and became a die-hard fitness enthusiast in his early 20’s. He began his career as a certified personal trainer in the fall of 2010 in Edmonton, Alberta and has 19000+ client coaching hours and counting. His devotion to reading and studying everything enables him to find time for, about fitness, nutrition, behaviour change, and anything related to a career in the fitness industry. He is the owner of Andrew Coates Fitness, founded in January of 2017 and contracting at Evolve Strength South.
In this episode, Andrew shares how not to be attached for what is short-term so that it is easier to move on and start again. And in this day where everything is out there on social media, it is easier to get carried away with what people put out there. He warns of comparing yourself with others to the extent of getting into negative self-talk. That won’t help you and the people you serve. Competition is another thing. That will always be there, you cannot do away with it, but you can always compete seeing to it that your integrity is intact.
“I don't like thinking in terms of status games, but I like to think in terms of career accomplishment that allows you to stand out in the space, because ultimately, that's how we affect more people positively. “ - Andrew Coates
