Stop Saying “I Hate Myself”

Summary

• I don't hate myself for not doing things perfectly. It's okay to acknowledge when something isn't my best work because that's how I improve.
• I focus on being competitive with myself, not with others. I compare my progress to my past and future potential, aiming to grow personally.
• Ignoring what others are doing helps me concentrate on my own development and goals.
• Growth is the main reason I strive to do better work in the future.

How To Take Action

I would suggest implementing a mindset of self-compassion. Accept that not everything has to be perfect. It’s okay to recognize when something you're working on isn't the best. This attitude makes room for improvement and helps you grow.

A good way of doing this is to focus on being your own competition. Compare what you did today to what you did yesterday or imagine what you could do tomorrow. By doing this, you can track your personal growth and set realistic goals.

It's helpful to ignore what others are doing. Concentrate on your path and what you’re trying to achieve. By minimizing distractions, you’ll become more focused on your own development.

Finally, always remember that the main goal is growth. Whether you’re an entrepreneur or just seeking personal development, pushing yourself to do better work can lead to significant progress over time. It's like leveling up in a game—challenge yourself just enough each day to get better without overwhelming yourself.
