Ep. 168 What Comparison is Actually Trying to Tell You


Listen Later

You're watching someone else do the thing you want to do, and they're doing it better than you. So your brain, being your brain, lands on "well, that must mean I suck."

In this episode, I unpack why comparison doesn't have to mean what you think it means and why "they're better than me" doesn't have to end with "so I'm terrible."

In this episode you'll hear my personal example plus the client conversation that sparked the whole episode.

What you'll take away:

  • Why someone being better at something than you doesn't mean you're not good
  • How to use comparison as data instead of a problem
  • The question to ask yourself before you go looking for what they do better
  • Why zero-sum thinking tanks your growth

If comparison tends to put you in a spiral, this one's for you.
