Motivational Power Quote
Our Toughest Competition
"Our business in life is not to get ahead of others,
but to get ahead of ourselves -
to break our records,
to outstrip our yesterdays by our today."
Steward B. Johnson, author
As I see it. . . . . . . .
Our toughest competition
We come face to face with the competition everyday of our lives. We face the competition every time that we look into the mirror; the competition is the competition of our mind.
To achieve greatness in our lives we have to become better at the things we do. To achieve success we have to be better today then we were yesterday.
The foundation of long term success is found in constant incremental improvement. That is where we compete with ourselves on a daily basis and continue to get better.
The standards of improvement are how much do we improve by measuring our progress against ourselves. In the long run we have to face ourselves everyday and we are the only one that can make an honest assessment of our self, our progress and improvement.
Our toughest competition is our self; and to get better then our competition we need to have personal and constant incremental improvement on a daily basis.
