You are not only as good enough as you are better than someone else.
As though there are only so many spots in the world, and the most worthy can fill them.
Of course, no such spots ever existed.
Karly Valencia
Because we are tasked with creating them uniquely and distinctly for ourselves.
You are not in competition with those around you.
You are in competition with your ego.
You are in competition with your laziness.
You are in competition with your vices.
You are in competition with your fear.
In the end, it is you vs. you.
For the rest of your life.
You are not only as wealthy as you are richer than someone else.
You are not only as loved as you have been able to convince others to love you.
This way of measuring ourselves has a toxic impact on our lives.
It makes us externalize our effort, it stifles and suffocates our potential.
One day, we must wake up and recognize that we create that success and goodness and love.
It is ours for the taking, if so we are willing to first make it.
Its not an accurate measurement.
Your enemy is the person closest to you.
It is the person you grapple with day-in and day-out.
It is the person you look in the eyes every single morning when you glance in the mirror.
It is the least likely suspect, and the most surprising.
You just have to choose for it to be so.
