Don’t Compete with others.
Stop Competing with Others. Start Competing with Yourself.

People often ask me,
"What's been your biggest challenge as an entrepreneur?"
My answer is always the same: Myself.
The real competition isn’t other businesses or professionals.
It’s the daily battle with procrastination, negative self-talk, and the seductive pull of the comfort zone.
✅ Instead of watching what others are building, build the discipline to start.
✅ Instead of comparing your path, silence the inner critic.
✅ Instead of chasing validation, lean into your passion even when it’s uncomfortable.
Because real growth? It happens outside your comfort zone.
It’s difficult. It hurts. But it’s also where you evolve as a person and as a professional.
Success isn’t about beating others.
It’s about outgrowing the person you were yesterday.
At Lupos Group, we champion self-competition, a mindset rooted in resilience, focus, and fulfillment.
Why does it matter?
🔹 You stay focused on your journey
🔹 You reduce the emotional toll of comparison
🔹 You build confidence through small wins
🔹 You cultivate continuous growth
🔹 You find meaning in progress, not perfection
How to practice self-competition:
🎯 Set SMART goals that stretch you
📈 Track your growth and adapt
💪 Build on your strengths and challenge your weaknesses
🎉 Celebrate the small wins — they compound
👀 Be inspired by others, but define your own worth
Authenticity attracts.
People resonate with those who stay grounded, grow intentionally, and lift others along the way.
Let’s compete less with others — and more with our old selves.
