Most people waste their energy trying to beat others instead of becoming better than they were yesterday. In this episode of The Strong Life Project, Shaun O’Gorman cuts through the noise around comparison, ego, and external validation. Competing with others is a distraction. Competing with yourself is where real growth, confidence, and high performance are built. This episode challenges the trap of measuring your life against someone else’s highlights and reminds you that progress is personal, internal, and non-negotiable if you want a strong life. Leaders, high performers, and anyone serious about self-mastery will recognise how comparison quietly erodes focus, consistency, and self-trust. Key Takeaways: Why comparison kills momentum and confidence How self-competition creates sustainable motivation The difference between external validation and internal standards How to measure progress without ego or self-judgement Why discipline beats motivation every time If you are serious about growth, stop watching what everyone else is doing and start doing the work that actually moves your life forward. Listen now and reset your focus on becoming better than you were yesterday.
