Want the Edge on Your Competition?
Posted by Stephen Martile | Posted in Creativity | Posted on 03-02-2009
Ignore your competition. Yup, you heard me right.
Competition is the very thing holding you back. You think that competing will move you ahead, but it won’t. Competing gets in the way of the truth.
The reason it’s not the truth is because competition is an ego-based idea. It comes from the fear-based mind, and not the creative mind.
The fear based mind keeps you stuck in scarcity. When things are scarce, there isn’t enough of them to go around. The scarcity mindset or this idea of not having enough is based in fear.
Fear is not the truth. Competition is not the truth.
The truth is that there is more than enough for everyone.
There isn’t any competition?
Well yes, there is competition, but not the way you think. The only competition you’ll ever encounter, is your ego-based mind.
What I’ve realized over the last couple years is that, figuratively speaking, everyone bakes their pie a different way.
Some of you may think you’re pie isn’t good enough, that it has too many apples, or that it isn’t sweet enough. Some of you may think you’re pie is too small.
And I’m gong to tell you that it doesn’t matter what others think about your pie. Regardless of what others think, there will always be some who likes your pie.
Would you like to know why?
Well it’s quite simple. There will alway be someone who likes your pie because of the way you make it.
A creation that is truly unique.
Want a richer life? Don’t compete, create.
