423 | Why comparing yourself to coworkers who *seem* more confident stifles your true potential
Stop comparing yourself to others who seem more confident - it's stifling your potential Have you ever watched a coworker speak up in a meeting – calm, poised, totally composed – and immediately felt your own confidence deflate? If comparing yourself to other people leaves you feeling like you're behind, or like everyone else has something you don't, this episode is for you. Here's the truth: constantly comparing yourself to others who seem more confident is one of the most damaging things you can do to your self confidence and the comparison you're making probably isn't even accurate.
