Your only competition is in the mirror. You need to be the best version of you.

Our social media world, the false reality created by 10 second moments of euphoria, distracts many people from the reality that all we can control is ourselves. Life isn’t about creating posts for Instagram or Snapchat. Life can’t be about creating the perfect “picture” to share on a stream or thread. The only competition we have is internal . . . it’s personal.

I can’t compare my life, my worth, with the snapshots other choose to share. I need to be the best version of me – that’s all I can control. My best version helps others become the best they can be . . . that’s what real leadership demands each and every day.

Don’t spend today creating a false reality to match the false realities posted or promoted by others. Spend today being a better version of you . . . that is where you really make a difference
