There was a time when I'd look at people further ahead than me and wonder if I'd ever catch up.
Now I spend less time looking sideways and more time looking forward.
Everyone has a different timeline.
Different opportunities.
Different challenges.
The only comparison that really matters is whether I'm becoming a better man than I was yesterday.
That's a race I can actually win.
Takeaway: Stop comparing your beginning to someone else's middle.
