Never Compare: The Power of Being You | Rule #006

In this episode of the House Rules Podcast, host Steven Almeida discusses the trap of comparison and the importance of embracing one's own uniqueness. He emphasizes that comparing oneself to others is unproductive and stifles creativity. Almeida uses examples from the worlds of filmmaking, writing, and basketball to illustrate his points. He encourages listeners to focus on their own growth, journey, voice and style, rather than trying to be like someone else. The episode concludes with a challenge to ditch comparisons to others and own their originality, create a vision board, compare their present selves to their past selves as a measure of growth.

Takeaways
