What makes us not go far in life is because we think we are in competition with other people. We focus so much on what others are busy with and we forget to focus ourselves and what we need to become better than what we were yesterday. That is why it becomes so difficult for us to celebrate others when they win because we think life is about being better than them.
When you focus on yourself you get to know what is important in your life. When you focus on yourself you know what battles you must fight instead of picking battles that dont belong in your destiny. When you focus on you, you know what you need to improve in your life. And when you focus on you, there will less noise that will influence you because you know that the most important noise is your inner words influencing your life. And yet when you focus on competing with others you lose yourself. You lose your true identity and you allow the world to influence you.
We need to strive to become better than wjo we were yesterday, thats the most important competition. We need to focus on investing in what can make us better than who we were yesterday. We need to find our true life purpose and focus on it daily. When you know your life purpose you will make sure that you stay in your own lane because your life purpose will show you that you are unique, and your life will never be the same as the people you are trying to compete with.
