Programmed For Success...
Like it or not, we have been programmed to seek ‘success’ - the promotion that signals that we’re more senior than our peers, the car that is newer/faster/shinier than theirs, the bigger house on the nicer street….
But to seek success is to give control of our lives to others - when the goal is to compare, the benchmark is being set by someone else.
It might be better then to just ask ourselves if we’re doing our best - the answer will tell us who, rather than where, we really are, and more importantly, what we need to be doing next…
