Stop Letting Comparison Lead You

Send us a text

Ever catch yourself feeling proud of your progress, only to open your phone and feel instantly behind? We dig into the comparison trap that quietly kills presence and creative energy, then trade it for a saner, stronger way to measure growth. You’ll hear the moment-to-moment reframes we use with clients, the personal practices that keep us in our lane, and a simple rule that changes everything: you can’t create and compare at the same time.

We start by naming what comparison really is—storytelling without all the facts. Social media shows highlight reels, not the hidden reps that make results possible. From there, we pivot to the only healthy yardstick: comparing who you were to who you’re becoming. That shift puts attention back on controllables like effort, learning, and values. We also get tactical. When comparison spikes, list your mountains: wins earned, skills built, obstacles crossed. Evidence calms the nervous system and reminds you that your path has weight and momentum.

Then we zoom out to the culture around coaching and creative work. When we stop competing with imagined versions of each other and start collaborating, everything speeds up. You gain context you can’t see from outside—pricing experiments, messaging pivots, client lessons—and you realize you’re not behind, you’re just in your season. We close by previewing what’s next: the surprising signals that mean you’re near a breakthrough. As comparison fades, new discomforts show up—impostor twinges, higher standards, strategy fatigue. Those aren’t warnings to quit; they’re proof you’re growing. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a nudge back into their lane, and leave a quick review to tell us which reframe lands for you.
