Summary

On this Caffeine Cast, Rob talks about our need for comparison. Comparison is the thief of joy. We always want more and more, we need to learn and grow but we also need to feel that we are satisfied and able to serve others. So, how can we manage this paradox of striving growth versus high self worth? Three short examples will help you balance these two and learn how to compare yourself to a past you, to your mentors and understand why celebrating little and often is the key for enjoying what you have done and being satisfied!   [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.
