Stop Comparing Yourself to a Myth: You're Not Falling Behind
from A Phil Svitek Podcast - A Series From Your 360 Creative Coach · host Phil Svitek
I break down a subtle trap many of us fall into—we compare ourselves not to one person, but to a collage of people, mistakenly treating their combined successes as if they belong to a single superhuman. No wonder we feel like we're not doing enough. But when we separate these individuals and actually study their journeys, we find the challenges, setbacks, and slow growth that got them to where they are. This isn't about minimizing their success—it’s about making your own path feel more real, grounded, and doable. You don’t need to do everything all at once.🔔 Subscribe for more movie reviews, storytelling insights, and creative discussions! Want deeper breakdowns?
