Competition can inspire and motivate us to pursue excellence, but it can sometimes come at the cost of unnecessary, personal stress. Because we all have such different backgrounds, belief systems and inherited strengths, basing our personal worth on how we measure up against others isn’t really an accurate or fair metric. When we’re doing what we love to do and want to share it, inspiration and motivation are internally generated. Competition between our past performance and our present one has no downside. Every time we score in that game, we can be sure…

We’re evolving.
