32. Worrying Less About The Competition

If you are constantly worried about what your competition is doing, you can never fully focus on your own progress. Sometimes, you have to put up blinders so that you can finish the race. Most of the time, when you’re worried about what the competition is doing, it’s because you are trying to compare your own progress to theirs. If you’re doing better, you get a rush of pride. But if you’re doing far worse, you feel awful, and it’s more likely that you may decide to quit.

Remember that everyone is going to be on a different leg of the journey. And these people you consider your competition may have worked for years to get to the point where they are right now, but you only assume that they just got started. Work at your own pace, and have the confidence to know that there is room for everyone to win.
