Episode 84 - You're Not Behind: Stop Running Someone Else's Race

Feeling like you’re behind? In this episode of 7,000 Volts: Living an Electrified Life, LJ Tucker challenges the lie that life is a race and reminds you that your life was never meant to follow someone else’s timeline. Drawing from his own journey—prison, rebuilding after failure, and years as an arborist—he explains how preparation can look like slow progress, like roots growing before branches. He warns that comparison steals peace, confidence, gratitude, and purpose, and urges you to measure progress by forward movement today: read the pages, make the call, take the walk, apologize, forgive, and take one step. LJ also stresses choosing purpose over money or outside expectations, and focusing on being the best version of yourself.
