Don't Poison Your Purpose: The Danger of Comparison

Описание: Here’s a quiet way purpose gets sabotaged, and most people don’t even notice it happening: comparison.

It doesn’t kick the door down. It slips in like background noise. You scroll. You glance. You start measuring. And suddenly you’re questioning your pace, your progress, your voice, your lane.

But you were never asked to mirror someone else’s assignment.

God didn’t mass-produce you. You are one of one. Intentional. Specific. Placed in this moment with your particular gifts, your particular story, and your particular work to do.

So when you start weighing your life against someone else’s timeline, you don’t just lose peace, you lose power. Your energy drains into a race you were never called to run.

Their pace isn’t your pace.
Their results aren’t your results.
Their calling is not your responsibility.

Today, try this as a discipline: refuse the sideways glance.

The moment your attention drifts, name it and redirect it. Say, “That’s not mine. I’m here for my work.” Then return to what you’re building.

Because comparison doesn’t just distract you. It contaminates your purpose.

Question for you: where do you feel comparison hitting you the hardest right now?
