Progress Over Perfection | Essay

Dr. Jae's Office Hours

🔴 Exploring the destructive habit of constantly comparing ourselves to others, offering practical strategies to shift focus towards personal growth and self-improvement.
Hey Family,
In this episode, I take a deep dive deep into the concept of "comparison to others is the thief of joy."
We all know the feeling – seeing others succeed can sometimes cast a shadow over our own achievements. But it's time to change that perspective.
Here's what I cover in the episode:
✅ The pitfalls of constant comparison and how it robs us of our happiness.
✅ Why comparison isn't always bad – if used as a tool for growth and motivation.
✅ The benefits of competing with ourselves, setting personal goals, and celebrating our victories.
✅ The concept of "progress over perfection" and how it can boost our self-esteem.
The most important takeaway?
Your biggest competitor is the person staring back at you in the mirror.
Each day is an opportunity to be a better version of yourself than you were yesterday. Embrace progress, not perfection, as your goal.
Interested in learning more? I invite you to take a listen, apply the ideas, and share your experiences.
Let's turn comparison into motivation and make our reflections our only competition
