Do you ever find yourself comparing yourself to someone else? Chances are you look upward when comparing.....not downward. The title of today's episode is a quote from Jon Acuff. Host Travis Shelton heard Jon say this many years ago, and it made a big impact on his life. Whether it's money, skills, career, fitness, or any other number of areas in our life, we need to take a step back from the comparison trap. We also need to recognize our comparisons are often unfair. We can't expect to be where someone else is if we haven't put near the time, energy, or commitment into it (yet) as they have. When we keep this in mind, it has the power to change our perspective and get us back on track to where we need (and want) to be.
