Chapter 3 vs Chapter 30
At some point this week, you'll open Instagram.
(Or LinkedIn. Or wherever your particular poison lives.)
And you'll see someone's highlight reel.
The client results. The holiday. The revenue screenshot.
And for a second - maybe longer - you'll feel behind.
What's happening?
You weren't insecure before you opened it.
The comparison created the insecurity.
Because comparison requires a ruler.
And you just handed someone else yours.
Scrolling LinkedIn and letting other people's curated highlight reels become the standard you measure your life against.
You weren't behind - until someone else's carefully edited fantasy told you that you should be further ahead.
Comparing your chapter 3 to someone else's chapter 30.
They're living the results of a decade of work.
You're judging yourself (https://www.instagram.com/reel/DVLbH1ZiNcx/) against their harvest while you're still planting seeds.
Remove the ruler.
Remove the artificial comparison.
You're not behind.
You're exactly where you are.
And the only move is to write the next page.
Happy Sunday.
Your biggest fan,
Jacob 'at chapter 4, maybe 5' Pegs
oh look, a hooman!
