People will love you, and people will hate you, and none of it will have anything to do with you.
The creepy mirrored funhouse that is judgement is a world that’s worth your attention. If you are someone who is constantly judging the way others are dressing, speaking, behaving, or otherwise living, chances are pretty good that you’re also being just as critical with yourself.

13 | The Art of Giving 100%: Why Comparison is the Thief of Joy
Why is unapologetically delivering 100% effort so damn hard for us to do?
A workout. A competition. A presentation. Any time we’re put to the test, why are we SO quick to point out the 37 ways in which we could have done better? Why do we immediately list all the ways in which we were disadvantaged, or that our competition had some distinct advantage that we didn’t have?
Why is unapologetically delivering 100% effort so damn hard for us to do?
With the Open in full swing, this is an especially important time to consider these questions, and more importantly, make an honest effort to rewire this tendency.
This episode is about how owning our vulnerability and being unapologetically proud of our efforts will make us better athletes, businesswomen, partners, friends, and overall happier people.
