The reflection in the mirror is you and the reality of it is, we don't even realize that. The focus should always be on yourself and not others. The journey is about growth and I share this in my blog.
The one thing I always say is no one will outwork me. I'm in competition with myself at all times but I know how much people are working toward their goals. The one thing that separates them from me is my work ethic and this blog explains that.
