You're Competing Against You

 

 

There's an idea that's been around forever. When it comes to personal growth, you don't compete against other people. You compete against yourself. The goal isn't to become the best in the world. The goal is to become the best version of you. 

It's an idea that gets repeated so often, it kinda loses its meaning. We tend to lose sight of what it really means - that we're on a quest to become the absolute best version of ourselves possible

But how often do we really think about that? What IS the best version of you? Think about that for a minute. Think bout what the best YOU looks like if you were firing on all cylinders. Imagine the version of you that is the strongest, smartest, healthiest version of you. What exactly would that look like? What could you accomplish? What difference could that version of you make for your family, friends, community, and world?

Now that you're picturing that version of you, why not make it happen? Why not? 

That's what The Authentology Project is all about. 

 Jocko Willink has some good thoughts on the topic. Here's an except from his phenomenal book "Discipline Equals Freedom", which is a must-read for anyone who's willing to do our Challenges. 

Me Versus Me

Give it a listen. Then ask yourself why not?
