A short YouTube monologue by Mark Evans DM reflecting on feelings common to founders—doubt, anxiety, insecurity, and pressure—and how a constant drive to do better can cause people to feel "behind." The speaker highlights social comparison (especially via social media) as a key driver of that feeling and contrasts focusing on faults with recognizing what one has done well.
Have you ever felt behind in life and in business? Do you feel anxious? Do you feel insecure? Do you doubt things? So I'm very hard on myself with these things. I do this with my wife, my kids, my friends and my family. I do this with my business. I do this with my event. I do it with everything. And if you're like me, you always feel like you can do better. Whatever it is, we have something to prove. So a lot of times the reason most people genuinely fell behind the eight ball is because they're paying attention to too many people with where they're at or what they think they're at. Because they're on social, you're comparing, so you might get overwhelmed with that, thinking you're behind the eight ball. We don't focus on what we've done good. We focus on what we can do better. It's a way different mindset.
