When other people's tapping success hurts your healing (Pod #686)

Seeing others succeed can be a powerful source of inspiration. Once we know something is possible for others, then it also becomes possible for us.

Take the sub-four-minute mile for example. At one point, it was thought impossible for a human to run a mile in less than four minutes and that pushing so hard would cause the runner's heart to explode.

On May 6th, 1954 Roger Bannister was the first person to run a sub-four-minute mile. Less than six weeks later John Landy not only ran a sub-four-minute mile, he beat Bannister's time.

Something went from being impossible, to being done, to having other people doing it.

While it can be encouraging to see others enjoy success, sometimes that becomes a tool for us to beat ourselves up emotionally.

We see that we are working as hard, if not harder, than others and yet we are not having success.

This can lead us to question our effort, our ability, or whether success is even possible for us. Other people's success just highlights our own failure and we feel defeated rather than encouraged.

This week in the podcast we tap for those times where we feel we have failed because we aren't having the same success as those we see around us.

If you have ever felt like you are working as hard (if not harder) as the people around you and there must be something wrong with you because you are not getting the results you want, then this week's podcast was recorded just for you.
