Do Not Measure Your Progress Against Other People

You can’t control everything, but you can measure your own progress. You know where you are. You know what you are doing. You know what you are doing really well. And you know what you are not good at.

If you want to grow, it is better to focus on what you are good at. But don’t forget the things that you are not good at.

And to improve yourself, do not compare yourself to other people. Don’t do that. Don’t try to be who you are not. The best way to grow is to follow your heart. It is to be yourself.

You are not going to reach your goals if you are not yourself. No matter what is going on in your life, don’t forget who you are.

You are your own master. You are your own driver. You have what you need to change your life. If you can take care of yourself, you can take care of your future. You are responsible for your future. If you want it to happen, don’t wait for others to take care of your future.

When You Raise Your Standards

What you want matters. If you don’t know what you want, you are not going to be able to achieve anything in your life.

No matter who you are, what you want, where you want to be, how smart you are, how creative you are, to be successful, you must raise your standards.

If you are not getting what you want, check your standards. If your life is not what you want, then it is time to look at your standards.

If they are not high enough, raise them. If you are with people who are not doing anything, if you want growth, you must change your friends.

Whatever it is that you are not okay with in your life, do not keep it. Let it go. If you don’t let it go, it will let you go.

Think about it. Getting to the top is not easy. It is full of obstacles. But do not let that stop you from raising your standards.

It matters. Just because you are struggling to get things done doesn’t mean you have to lower your standards. Do not do that.

That is the fastest way to failure. But if you want to grow, if you want to experience a meaningful life, you must raise your standards.

Because success comes from raising your stardards, not from lowering them.

If you want to experience real happiness in your life, you must raise your stardards.

If you want to attract quality people into your life, you must raise your standards.

If you want to boost your self-worth, you must raise your standards.

And

if you want to improve your life, you must raise your standards. The question is, Will you do it? The choice is yours.
