Don’t waste time worrying about what someone else is doing. Focus on what you control: you.
Track has it figured out.
Take the 100m sprint.
The gun fires. You explode off the blocks, pushing toward your finish line.
Then the doubt creeps in… Where is everyone else?
You glance left. You glance right. Maybe even peek behind you.
And what happens? You slow down.
Your body isn’t designed to run at top speed if your head is turned in any direction but straight ahead.
Same Rule. Bigger Game.
Life works the same way.
- The more time you spend checking on everyone else, the less energy you have for your own race.
- The more you compare, the more you distract yourself from progress.
- The only real competition? The person you were yesterday.
When you lock in on that—when you focus on your lane, your progress, your growth—you move faster, push harder, and crush more goals than ever before.
Quit checking other lanes. Run your race.
Compete every day.
