There’s nothing wrong with a little competition to put a fire under you to step up your game…

not to be better than they are but to expand yourself. To be the best you can be.

Years ago when I sang for a local non-profit organization, this was very important to me. Believe it or not, I wasn’t very competitive with the other performers.

I used to think to myself “I’m the wrong type of person for this.” Like something was wrong with me – being different than most. But being competitive made me feel bad and not being competitive didn’t stop me from working to improve. I respect others who are talented and by that admiration – it pushed me to want to improve so I could be the best version of myself. I still utilize this philosophy in my life today.

Do you think it is possible to do this or do you feel there are times when competing against another is necessary? I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Love, light, & blessings to you,
