True confidence isn’t fueled by being better than others. It’s rooted in being faithful to your own personal path.And yet, the brain is naturally wired for comparison. Social Comparison Theory, pioneered by psychologist Leon Festinger, reveals that humans instinctively evaluate themselves against others to understand their worth. The key is not to eliminate comparison completely — that’s impossible. The mission is to transform it: from a force that diminishes you to one that reminds you of your uniqueness, your sovereignty, your inner wholeness.Here’s the deeper insight: You are not behind. You are not late. You are not missing anything. Your journey is unfolding with exquisite precision — training you, strengthening you, preparing you for glories, bravery and fortune that you cannot yet see. The masters of life don’t sprint faster on someone else’s race track — they walk slowly, bravely, joyfully, on their own. They run their own race.This is what my latest book The Wealth Money Can’t Buy is all about. Real wealth versus fake success. True winning versus spending your life climbing a mountain, only to find out at the end that it was the wrong one.
