Healthy Competition



 Comparing myself to others both creatively, professionally, & personally is difficult to avoid entirely, but I am striving to keep those thoughts to a minimum & instead focus on being a better version of myself.

One of my college professors always told us that "everyone is working with the same twenty-four hours in each day" and that, basically, it is up to you to make the most of your time since all of us have obligations & obstacles that could potentially keep us from completing a project or reaching a goal. Take back the time spent on comparing yourself to others, work with what you've got, & push yourself to continually improve & progress.

Do you find yourself competing with others often or do you compete with yourself most?
