Certainly seems that way Have you ever asked yourself âWhy does everyone else seem to have it figured out? Why is everyone I see happier, more successful, stress free and has more money?â The worst part is that they all seem to do it so easily. Theyâre younger than you, less experienced. What REALLY grinds my gears is when someone says âYeah I was a corporate finance rep for years, decided to give marketing a go and now I run a $1M a month agency. Took me 2 years.â And youâre like: HOW!? How have they done this? Why am I struggling so much, and for them, it comes so easy!? And Iâve got one word that sums it up. When we compare what others âhaveâ with what we have, we jump to conclusions. Thereâs a story of two lumberjacks, way out in the middle of the dense forest, and they work from 8am to 12pm every day. Then they both take a break. One of them heads back to his cabin for lunch and one stays out with his equipment. After lunch, they head back to work, but the one who went back to the cabin always seems slower than his colleague. So he asks if his friend has lunch, to which the other lumberjack says âof course!â and by the end of the day, theyâre both tired, but the cabin lumberjack seems on the verge of exhaustion. This goes on for days. Both seem absolutely equal right up to lunch, have lunch separately and then when they get back, the lumberjack that stays outside, seems to breeze through the afternoon. The cabin lumberjack thinks over and over, âWhatâs his secret? Is it the walk back thatâs tiring me? Is it what I eat? Does he have extra protein or drugs even? We go to bed at the same time, we wake up at the same time, the treeâs we cut are the sameâ¦what is he doing?â And eventually this becomes too much for the cabin lumberjack so he starts asking his friend if he has a different lunch or if heâs doing drugs. Heâs getting more and more irate and his friend asks âWhatâs the matter?â The constant comparison and competition, built up in the mind of the cabin lumberjack has turned to resentment for his once close friend. And after another exhausting afternoon, he snaps. âI canât believe it!? How are you so good at this?! I know Iâm slower than you and older, maybe my technique isnât as good, but youâve just got it easier! You must be built differently. I go back to my cabin every lunchtime and try to think how youâre beating me each afternoon!?â The outdoor lumberjack puts his axe down, stares at his friend and asks âSo when are you sharpening your axe?â You see, we donât see the work and toil and failure. We also donât see the advantages that theyâre giving themselves or the path theyâve taken. If we stopped comparing ourselves to other people and focusing so much on what theyâve got, we might be able to see what we can change a little easier. That one word? Itâs âeditingâ. You canât sum up years and decades of life and experience into one post or email or video. Youâre seeing snapshot highlights - the best bits. Yesterday I talked about helping 17,000 people. I didnât talk about the 2 books that have barely sold 500 copies between them. Or that my blog has been losing traffic over the last few years. I donât talk about the 8 hours a day I spend researching the next portion of my business. Itâs like âbusiness pornâ. Itâs not really like that, not in the real world. Only people who have never done it, think thatâs how it really works. Stop comparing. It literally does you no good. P.S. Hereâs some more ways I can help your funnel business grow. 1.
