Why hasn’t it happened yet? How to Stop Comparison in Its Tracks

Have you ever found yourself comparing your journey or your results to someone else’s? Have asked yourself questions like: Why hasn’t it happened yet? What am I doing wrong? Why does it feel so hard?

If so: you’re not alone. It’s common to use other people’s timelines or results as a measure of what we should do or should have in a certain amount of time.

But here’s what I’ve learned about this: I have NO idea how someone got their results. None. And so to compare myself and what I have (or don’t have) is simply a waste of time, energy and focus.

Instead of asking “why not me?” I’ve learned to ask different questions - questions like “who must I become to get what I want? What must I learn to get what I want? How must I be patient to get what I want?
