Stop comparing yourself to others. It’s a great way to destroy confidence and diminish performance. 

The real game to play is to get better than yesterday’s self. Why dilute your energy comparing yourself to others when the real work is materializing the genius within you. 

There’s only one you on the planet today. You’ve been built to dazzle. And designed to inspire.

Why You Need to Stop Comparing Yourself to Others [Today]

Given that we cannot go outside and travel as well as we could before March, I passionately encourage you to use this period to go within.

Imagine taking the next 6 months to read transformational books, heal old wounds, upgrade your primary skills and plan out your next 20 years with ultra-clear intimacy. 

Reading a book is having a conversation with the author. Pick up the right one, and you put it down - forever changed.

Read The Heroic Books

The greatest movement-makers all have one thing in common: they were masterful communicators. Through their words and ways of showing up, they have been able to persuade their people to follow them to the mountaintop.

And by speaking your truth, even when your voice is trembling and your hands are sweating, you’ll multiply your dignity, credibility and advance beautifully in the resolve you bring to everything you do.

1 Key Element of Becoming an Outstanding Communicator

Be deep vs. be light. World-class lives in a fanatical devotion to perfection on the tiny details. At a hotel I visited, they de-seeded the lemon wedges. Dial in your craft.

The Mentality of Mastery

Often, we are our greatest abusers. And when we increase the caring of our selves, we begin to sense the secret glory that rests at our base. And come to know all that we truly are.

As you love yourself more, you’ll grow intimacy with your natural genius, discover your truest powers and honor your highest self.

The Primary Relationship of Personal Heroism

Today's insight for A-Players: without relentless optimization you're on the path to irrelevance.

If you’re in business, the groovy days are gone and only the fittest will survive.

You absolutely need to shed excess expenses, seek out operational efficiencies and rework your shop so that you deliver astonishing value in a market where your competition is charging the same amount and giving customers less [just to survive].

Use what life is sending us to build a better you, grow a business that serves more people and live a life that’s more creative, joy-filled and kind.

According to the definition, "meticulosity" means "an extreme attention to detail." Now I know we should do nothing to an extreme (Chinese wisdom tells us that "the bow too tightly strung is easily broken"). But I like the idea of having a masterful devotion around the details-both while we work and while we live. 

I’ve noticed that the best companies all have an OAD-obsessive attention to detail. 

OAD shows you care. That you are devoted to excellence. That you and your organization are striving for mastery. In all you do. In every way. And on every day.

OAD - Obsessive Attention to Detail

The negative people, the pursuits you dislike and the environments that deplete your joy are costing you fortunes of income and empires of impact.

When it comes to Best of Breed Performance, one of the most valuable things I explain to my clients is the imperative of releasing these success bandits from your life.

The people who steal your fire, smother your ambitions and laugh at your visions are keeping your prosperity chained and your impact small. [This is an extremely important insight].

Having the wisdom and guts to let them go [while still wishing them well on their life's journey] is a total results-changer.

Deleting the energy vampires and drama enthusiasts, methodically and swiftly, will lead to your mindset becoming more positive, your bravery becoming more potent, your work becoming more excellent, your personal life becoming more peaceful and your place in the world becoming more unlimited.

So you can become the person nature truly wants you to be.

To Lead Without Title is to make a leap. From accepting ordinary to crafting the extraordinary. From blaming others to looking in the mirror. From going to work to chasing a Calling.

Your greatest power is your power to choose. Own that power (versus saying that you can’t see your job as your mission). Yes, right here, right now – you can elevate what you do to some kind of a Crusade of Excellence. Some kind of an Agenda for Mastery. Some kind of a Revolution for Remarkability.

But you "just work in human resources" or "sell milk" or "work in a grocery store" you say to me. Own your power. You have the power to be excellent in that work. To inspire everyone who intersects your path. To innovate and make things better than ever before. To wow customers. And to stand for the best. Will you?
