Why it is necessary to compare one's personal characteristics, attributes, lifestyles, skills and traits to the PECs of a successful entrepreneur?

It’s a good question because we see it every single day, everywhere, but this doesn’t mean that is the right question. “WHY” will lead you to justification answers
and that will not lead into actions. The question should be if it’s necessary or not to make the comparison. In this case my answer is YES and NO.
I will start with the “NO”. You are unique, original and, above all, you are great. There always will be another person that is smarter, taller, more successful,
more… than you are. So if you set yourself to compete with these people, you write for yourself a sure recipe for feeling in many occasions frustrated. You cannot
be someone else! YOU ARE YOU! So the right way is to compare yourself to yourself. That means that you have to build daily on your persona in order for you to
become a better, smarter or richer person. If you choose to do so every day you’ll gain a huge amount of knowledge, skills and Change happens immediately, but
it takes time to see it.”
As I’ve said before… My answer is also “YES”, but not in the comparative way. Let me be more specific. Looking at other people’s characteristics, attributes,
lifestyles, skills and traits it will give insights about who you want to become, how should you behave and what do you want to achieve. These people that you
are comparing yourself with are your role models. Use them as your mentors. It’s important not to see where are they now, but to find out what they did to
achieve their entrepreneurial success. And the best way to follow their footsteps is to take massive action.
I hope you’ll find this article helpful and remember that we are in the industry of building people and it’s a proven fact that together we are better. So don’t
forget to share this with the world!
