  • Summary

  • Do you often compare your achievements with others? Do these comparisons motivate you to improve or do they leave you feeling defeated, demotivated, or even envious? If you relate to these questions, you are in the right place!
    In this impactful episode of The Truest Fan Blueprint, Rob Brown and Phil Calandra have a meaningful discussion on how comparison can be a tool for growth instead of something that robs you of joy.
    They give the example of a junior advisor teaming up with a senior advisor and how the junior advisor might begin desiring what the senior advisor has accomplished throughout their extensive career. Rob and Phil stress the significance of establishing appropriate expectations and benchmarks, ensuring that the junior advisor remains focused on their own developmental journey instead of making unfair and irrational comparisons.
    The key lies in effective coaching and mentoring. A skilled coach or mentor can help both partners avoid common mistakes, cultivate strategic habits, and achieve their goals quicker and genuinely.
    According to Rob and Phil, the primary goals of a business owner may extend beyond money or status. Instead, they may seek freedom and fulfillment through purpose-driven work. By avoiding comparison traps and designing a personalized roadmap to success, it is possible to flourish in business and live life on your own terms.
    Don't miss out on the practical insights Rob and Phil share about mindset, benchmarking, and what truly drives sustainable achievement.

    • Comparison as the thief of joy and as a great growth tool in business
