It’s easy in life to focus on the things we don’t have. It’s way too easy to see the shortcomings, failures, pains and other limitations. The world throws our limits back in our face every chance we can get. We measure ourselves by the success of others. We believe we’re not good enough based on how we stack up against someone else.
