The Number 1 Sabotage in Achieving Your Goals
from The Unstoppable Eventrepreneur™ · host May Yeo Silvers
With 2022 in full swing, many of you already have established your goals for the year.

According to May, the number one thing that inhibits a person from achieving their goals is comparison.

Tune into this week’s episode of The Unstoppable Eventrepreneur™ for a conversation about the negative impacts of comparison. Learn more about the importance of patience and measuring your progress so you can stay focused on achieving your goals. Quotes • “The number one way to sabotage is comparing yourself to another person.” (05:09-05:13) • “If you can stay focused, put on your blinders, not look at what other people are doing, and instead focus on yourself and measure against your progress, that's how you can avoid sabotaging your progress.” (05:43-05:59) • “You want to measure yourself against yourself. You don't want to measure yourself against other people.” (06:01-06:05) • “If you do more than yesterday, you're already progressing. If you have learned from what you have done yesterday, you're already progressing. But if you don't do anything, and you just freeze, there's no growth and that can happen when you start looking at other people's progress.” (09:42-10:00) • “Tomorrow's success will look very different from today's success.” (15:31-15:34) Links Connect with me at: [email protected] Website: events4anyone.com LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/mayyeosilvers Facebook: www.facebook.com/mayyeosilvers IG: www.instagram.com/mayyeosilvers TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mayyeosilvers FB private group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/events4anyone Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
